Now that, Paul, is a very good shot You still have the purple shadows , but the composition is excellent, nice focal point, and great contrast between the green/red sign and blue background.

what an amazing blue in the upper right corner and a great blue-white contrast together with this red accent color

Thats a great composition and what a vivid blue colour to the sky, you've got good detail on the tree trunks and they draw the eye nicely and naturally.

Did you set the white balance to shade on this one as suggested by Tim.

Very good picture in terms of colour and composition- and really makes one smile at the juxtaposition of the speed sign and all pervading immobility.

It's rare to find a speed sign that makes a shot rather than spoils it - nicely done Paul
