Photographically, this shot doesn't hold very much interest. Black and white is probably the best treatment for this, but I would suggest a different composition. If the house in the bottom left is to be included, it might be better if it was completely visible. Also, the angles created by the house and telephone pole do not work well with the vertical post, and are a bit blurry as well. I'd suggest shooting this from an angle a little further left to crop out the house and pole, and the use of fill flash or positive exposure compensation to brighten up the sign a bit.

I like the composition. I would have bumped the mids again, but that's just me. But I like this image, there is something ominous about it.

alittle blurry...not sure if you did this on purpose, but seeing how the picture isnt all that inspiring, something in focus would have mayve helped...

Contrast is very boring.

This is raw, everyday stuff. Good work.
