#1. I like the idea, but the execution doesn't quite work IMO. As mentioned, the large out-of-focus area foreground left is very distracting. I'd like to see this reshot with a few slight adjustments. 1) Have all the blocks aligned so that either the logo is not visible (preferable) or if that's not possible so that they all face the same way. 2) A little wider at the front so that you can see more of what it's supposed to be; I guess what you were intending, but to be honest, more because I've seen them before, and 3) Set the blocks up so that the "tunnel" is either die-straight or has a gentle curve.

#2. Nicely done; I'd like to see a little less of the dark, empty area image right though. Is there a way that you could shoot this from the middle of the road, say a traffic island at an intersection?
