cool shot--the more i look, the more it grows on me! for some reason i could see this as an album cover for some cool alternative/indie band like pavement or sonic youth. ;)
my first thought about the shot was that while i like sun flares very much--this one is overpowering--you can barely see the rays that make these flares so awesome--but it definitely works here.
i love the blue sky against the concentric circles of the sun, and the green of the signs--and also how the trees have taken on the blue hue--helps blend them in to the background with a cool effect.
compositionally, i might have liked to seen the post backed further to the left and not quite so centered in the frame--to enhance the sun and sign a little more--since they are the coolest part of the photo (to me!).
technically, looks good. you put your shutter/aperature speeds to good use in enhancing the sunflare, nice work.
all in all, very cool, cant believe it didnt score higher! |

| Gotta know? Wat this photo and title after the fact of getting home and finding it was the best shot, so it was titled as a coverup of an error or was this intentional. Cause I'm blinded by it also, yet I like it, for some reason. Just hope the drivers weren't as blinded by the "sun" light and could see the "stop"light. Nice one worth a 7 to me. |

| Wow! That's a lot of sun! A little too much for my tastes, I think. Although I do like sun flares. |

| The overexposure of the sun is too much. It's overpowering the image even if it is the subject (which would sort of make this sign just in the way) - Inspzil |
