Initial Impression - Great exposure and contrast but ultimately lacking in subject interest.
Composition - Overall the composition is okay. I get what you were going for, isolating the sign agaist the white wall background. You are right to go with a centered composition here. However, I think the angle of the sign is a real deterent, but that probably has more to do with the wall as the background...
Technicals - The exposure is actually pretty good. Sharpness is good. There is a tilt, but it works for this image. Techniquely I think the image is strong.
Possible Suggestions:
You might try a higher plane, rather than looking up it might be beneficial to look straight on. Normally I don't like vignetting, but in this case accentuating the sign by a strong vignette I think would help. Along the same plan allowing to see more of the bricks in the background "may" also help with a stronger composition. Maybe bring out the white a little more, especially in the "Stop" in the sign. Normally, I am not a strong component of post, but I think a little added dramatic style done in post would have really worked well. |
