 This is a "two-headed" billboard I've often noticed on my commute to/from work. The messages complement each other so nicely, I thought it would make a good subject for this challenge.

Duotone, cropped, adjusted levels & bright/contrast.

Thanks to my wife for the title!

Nice play on words. Great shot. I wish you had moved a hair to the right when composing to give the billboards more symmetry. Good job!

Great B&W theme of these billboards with the two messages mixed up together in the title.

This is surely one of the best photos in the contest...but then what do I know? No I really do like the bold signs, each one for something different and yet so much the same, and with similar messages. It's great that you were able to capture them together this way.

Very nice idea. I thought who will show advert as the most popular form of modern communication. I think it needs a little more "air" (it's croped very tight), but the idea is great. 9. (I like it B&W)
