An English post box and telephone box, on a relatively rural road in Norwich, England. Actually did a fair amount of processing for me on a basic challenge, as I wanted the color just right. I have quite a few outtakes from this set that I like (I shot a bunch of these shots on two days, and some bits were better than others in each shot, so I hope I picked the right one). I'll post the outtakes after the challenge ends, if anyone's interested.

nice picture, but the fact that they are cut off by the shrubs takes away from it

Nice capture ... but too many distractions

Great idea, placing 2 red similar objects in the shot. The hedge (?) seems a bit too distracting for my taste. 5. J

Interesting angle you chose.. I'm not sure the green bush in the foreground add's anything to this & would like to see this with out that & maybe moved to your left more to get both booths at a funky angle.imho :-) Great focus & lighting.
