| Colors are vibrant, well placed in the field, nice focus. I didn't care for the glass flowers, but as I sit here and look at the photo.. I'm bumping it up. |

| I would have liked this better if the flowers had been real, nevertheless, I like the light off the glass and the colours |

My evaluation method of this challenge is as follows:
1. Did you catch my eye while I was driving by? Yes
2. If I didn't catch the text while I was driving, did you intrigue me enough to look for this billboard again? No
3. Did you sell your stuff to me? No
4. Extra thoughts: This photo has no interest to me. The glass flowers don't "say" anything to me.
The photo is nice but that is all I can say about it. I don't think that it serves it's purpose as a billboard. |

| Good billboard features. Simple, easy to «read», effective. But real flowers would have been much more effective, in my humble opinion. |

ok, i am voting this challenge in 2 passes. in this pass, you will get a partial comment and a score. then i will come back to comment again. if you have any problem whatsoever with this comment, pm me and let me know. otherwise, take it with a grain of salt...i'm not trying to be a know-it-all, i'm just explaining where i'm coming from in voting this challenge. and, if this comment is NOT helpful (of if you think i'm full of $#!+), don't mark it helpful.
billboards are a science unto themselves. a lot of research has gone into determining just how much information a person can digest and retain in specific time spans. they use this information to develop formulas for determining the number of words and letters to use on billboards, as well as their sizes. they also determine the size and number of visual elements to include.
the graphics/photograph on a billboard are designed to get the point across in a moment. on the road, a driver will have less time with a billboard than a voter will give your image. this is a key element in the challenge: composing a shot that will get its point across quickly and succintly. along those lines, a strong composition will probably have few details and make strong use of negative space.

nice idea for a billboard. love the colors and composition. this looks like it would get your message across, even at 80 mph! really hope this does well for you. good luck! |

| I'd rather see real flowers in an advertisement for them. Nice composition though. |
