I had this placed higher.

Such a timely image and well taken in a photojournalism style. For that reason I think the diamond sign adds a note of realism and authenticity.

A sign of the times - Covid warnings and empty seats. Very apropos.

This was the first photo I took for the challenge, but had not planned to use it. As my other ideas did not work out, at the last minute, I decided to use it, and briefly considered cloning out the leaning diamond-shaped sign, but decided not to.

Love the idea (very topical) and the the composition. I think I'd have cloned out the road sign and the yellow object though just to simplify it. It looks a bit cluttered.

Ah, these covid times, throwing a spanner into every aspect of life. Are you allowed to use the seat? Where I live seats in public places have been in and out of bounds during our ever changing restrictions.

A timely journalistic shot.

Gets my vote for most topical.

Though the bench is the biggest thing in the picture, the sign dominates the scene. Nice picture of it, though - well-composed. Like the strong leading lines.

What a GREAT find! So relevant today. The start looking bench is perfect. I may consider cloning out the street sign.

Nice juxtaposition of the sign and the bench.
I'd have considered cloning out the diamond sign in the background to reduce the number of elements. The tones also looks a little cool - would a little warming in pp have helped?

the sign makers are in boom time at the moment
Locally the benches are being used by singles

This photo is SO 2020; it captures it so well. I really like the leading lines of the bench ending at the sign. Very nice!
