The out of focus sunset just doesn't do it for me, but to each his own.

Reminds me of a classy business card for some reason. Wasn't sure of the sunset either. It's kinda growing on me I think. I like the color of the 22 and the use of dof and light. Never a fan of power lines tho.

I think i would skip the sunset part and crop this to the wall.

I like the idea but...
- it's leaned to the left
- power cords don't add anything
- that yellow orange color of the sunset in the bg is really overpowering
- if it were mine picture, I'd re-shoot it
anyway... jmo

Brian, this is very nice. You should consider posting it for the Mission 22 project. I heard about it this week, it's a really good cause.

i think the problem is that if you wanted the sunset to be the focus of attention, you needed more DOF.
what you have here is the number 22 in focus, and everything else quickly falling out of focus.
this makes the 22 the only real subject of the photo.It certainly is the most prominent.

Its not a bad photo, but with the 22 as the "subject", i think this photo would look better cropped 1:1 with most of the right side gone where most of the frame is the 22 and the wall.

thank you for your feedback i will crop this at 1:1 once i get home today.

As said before...there are beautiful lights here. beautiful 22. I follow the lines and...I arrive to a sunset totally out of focus. I don't know...I wouldnt crop. I know colors tell a story here, but...give bw a try.

I personally wouldn't convert it to b&w because of the colors in the 22. To me it's the color of these numbers that is the interesting part and the OOF sunset is just fine as it is.

Its a nice picture if it had a purpose. Someone mentioned a business card. Maybe something significant to 22.
