i worry a lot of people are going to completely miss the trees in the background and comment solely on the light. In any case, the sky is a touch blown out, give the whole image a hazy feel, i'd much rather a darker exposure and a crisp, tight feel. the placement of the stop light is kinda bland as well, it doesn't have much impact.
Stop lights are a bit cliche in this challenge, but the change in colours of the leaves in the background add an additional dimension to this picture, although its a shame this picture couldn't have been taken in the autumn. (transition of stop light would compliment the transition of seasons nicely.) I don't like the excessive lighting in the background on the right. Perhaps a different time of day would have solved this problem?
this is the best traffic light pic i've seen. not because of the traffic light, but because of the leaves in the background. although, that makes me wonder - was this photo actually taken in april? nonetheless, i gave the photographer the benefit of the doubt and didn't take off any points.
You captured the challenge well. The background and angle of this photo makes an ordinary subject stand out . I like how you managed to capture the red and yellow lights. They match the trees in the background. Good job.
cool! spring here, autumn where you are -- i like the double transition, altho i think i'd prefer the light to be off to one side instead of centered, it's nicely done!
Good transition... Looks like the sun was working against you in this shot... The brightness is a little hig on the right and on the left. If your camera has the capability of using a filter on the lens, a polarizer helps trememdously in situations like this...
Cool Traffic light. I love the background too, it contains more transition. I would have prefered an angle a few feet back from where you were and I would have composed the light a bit more to the right so its off center and we can see more of those beautiful orange leaves.
Good shot, though the colors on the left and right are washed out by the direct sunlight. You might try this same shot at a later time in the day. I think it would yield a better overall shot.
Very interesting. There is almost two transitions in this picture. The traffic light, and the tree. The left half seems to be taken during fall, and the right during spring. Nice!
