The colors are awesome! I really should try night photography My only problem with it is the dead space in the upper left corner, eh it might just be me who feels that way though

Interesting shot, and crazy how the first review is before the picture Some glitch there! This is a tough picture to fix IMO because of the awning (?) which is all black right through the middle of the picture. You can't really crop around it, so it kinda throws things for a loop.

Though I do love the colors, I think a reshoot with a little more shutter speed would be good,

I like the idea of this picture, but think it needs something. I've wanted to do a picture like this for a while, having gotten the idea from a bar in Florida that had a neon sign and a saxophone player out front. I think, in a situation such as this, it would be better for a slower shutter speed for motion. I definitely think this spot could work better for a picture with some kind of human element involved.

Personally, I really, really like this shot. I think you exposed the neons perfectly. THey're like those bug lights trying to attract the barflies! And I really like how the only light is on the pub sign, the neons, and the door. As if nothing exists beyond that little world.

In an ideal world, the car wouldn't be there, and the awning wouldn't have gotten in your way, or you would have been able to crouch down and not get those cut off neons (which the car was, of course, in the way). But I would rather have this image as it exists than not at all. And you could try cropping it but I think it would lose something, some sort of weird balance.

It's great (to me at least!)
