    I like the colors and compo of the first one.

    I think the second one has a lot of potential. But probably a reshoot. The ida of a dark empty, street lit up by the bright neon sign is a good one. I think the cars don't work. Don't like how the 'news store' sign looks, either.

    I agree with wxwax that the secxond shot has alot of potential. What really strilkes me about it is the glow on the bricks, the neon sign and it's reflection in the window. I wonder if a drastic crop or reshoot could be used effectively to isolate those features?

    I agree w/ what Sid and Kurt say.
    I also think that #1 could have some pp work done and be a really good shot for the challenge.
    Sky's the limit if you have the time.

    Nice shots I agree that # 2 has alot of potential. I would try a tighter crop and a different angle to try to get the full reflection in window if possible. I think the reflection adds alot to the shot.
    Best regards,

    I agree that #2 has a lot of potential - I love the reflection in the window. It would be great to just focus on the one sign and the reflection.

    #3 could also be interesting - Maybe crop the bottom of the sign that you see that the top right of the picture? I like the reflection /shadow onto the background.

    Thanks everyone. I have some more neon in the area I will try and shoot.

    Until then, a crop...
