I think the great challenge when composing a photo with signs or lettering is to not let the graphic elements overtake the entire image. (Please see more text below)
I shot this image a couple of years ago at a park in Chincoteague, Va. The clouds, the coloring the sign and the bird just seemed to gel for me.
The sign definitely overtakes the image which is not typically the result I am seeking but for me it works here because the bird almost looks like he is part of the sign.
After a few minutes the bird did eventually fly away!
