 Thanks for the comments on my photo.
There are three signs like this in our county. They used to have the "Except when turning right" portion in small print on a smaller sign. So small that you had to stop just to be able to read it! That's the sign I wanted to photograph but of course when I went to take a photo of it, they had (finally) replaced it. I actually drove to all three signs, too.

Clear and bright but just a tad too tight in the crop. A little more room on the left and bottom would be nice.

..."And if and only if X = Y and Y = Z, then you can turn left" I know, confusing isn't it? I like this picture! Very clear, very sharp!

There is always some exception to the rule ;). Great clarity and vivid colour but no context

A pretty boring sign. But thoughtfully photographed to give a complementary background. Good angle, good colour, good sharpness and good exposure.

Not that confusing. =-) A little tightly cropped around the bottom.

Could the Stop sign be in better focus. Funny!

I would have waited until you could have gotten some blue sky behind that white sign. Good job.

I guess having a simple shot of a sign straight on is a little boring, but not so sure that having it slightly askew is much better. The first thing I think is that it's tilted. Beyond that the sky background is good, there's some nice blue to it. The image is also sharp and clear. I just do not find much interest with it, sorry.

Crisp and a twist on the "STOP" sign

I've never seen that kind of sign.......it is a little confusing!

I'll say. Good idea shooting up toward the sky; it eliminates any background obstructions and creates a more interesting angle of view.

It's a great picture of a sign.
