The sign sticks out just a bit too much with the desaturation of the rest of the shot. But, it definately captures the essence of life in the country!

Yup, that makes it fairly country. Nce statement made too. In voting, not a remarkable shot, just a competent one.

My eyes are drawn to the sign a little to much with the color on your desaturated photograph. I wish you would of focused more on the country theme instead of the sign.

The sign is just a bit too vibrant for my taste.

I think the sign would have been prominent enough wihtout the selective desat. This spoils the image for me.
