This really pops in black and white. The sunlit building almost looks 3D standing out from the dark background.

I quite like the composition and even moreso the implications - the worn belt does indeed tell a story. Very well presented.

I like the striking color contrast. Good use of the frame and a terrific natural reference. Something that everyone knows but does not necessarily see.

I really like the processing here. The building jumps off the screen in contrast that the dark sky.

On a sunny day. You would never know with the black background. It definitely looks very nice this way. I think the black background and the great contrast shows off the history of that cool old building in its best possible way :)

A funny, odd DeSoto on the roof. A tight view of the beauty/barber/gift shop. The architecture has the feeling of a renovated gas station with the appearance of covered garage bays. A good subject, interesting commercial roadside place. I might like this view a little wider which may emphasize the origin of the building somewhat more clearly, but your framing is effective, I find these things are actually difficult to shoot.

Hey what are you doing going to a Japanese Festival...you are meant to be in Team America....Was there not a monster truck rally you could have visited

I really like this shot, the crispness of the white, and the great contrast of the 'black' (in parts) belt gives this a real 3d feel to it. Super sharpness on the belt gives it a great textured feel and this works well with the bokeh

Very nice image

Love the contrast in this picture. Horizontal lines, circular objects, circular objects with lines, light weight skinny objects and heavy things. I just like it.

Children are so expressive. She definitely portrays that "I am waiting forever" look.
