reflecting cactus

Very interesing neon sign. To my eyes, you might have done more with this in post processing to really make it stand out. The building reflection in the background has a lot of noise in it which is kind of distracting. I think, if you played with levels you could get the background to be darker and the sign to be brighter and really pop out at you.

Great picture for the challenge. You did a wonderful job of capturing this sign! Perhaps if you adjusted the levels a little more on the bright end it would really make the neon colors more vivid.

Nice clear picture. Your black background turned out really well and the foot is in good focus and the colors are great. It doesn't really have a real Neon feel to it though - the bandaid is a nice bright yellow but it really isn't the main thing that grabs your eye as you look at the photo - the foot is the main center of attention. Perhaps if you had used a neon pink or green bandaid it would have stood out more.

This is really interesting and very certainly very neon bright! It is a bit busy. I'm very interested in how you achieved this - hope you wrote down how you did it so people can read what you did at the end of the challenge.

Really cool picture, the way the cross is reflected in the clouds is very unusual. To me the composition might have been improved if the cross hadn't been so centered. The photo also has quite a bit of noise in the sky. That's sometimes hard to avoid with night shots, perhaps some slight noise removal with a program like neat image might help.

How lovely. Hope you wrote down how you did this on your picture as I'm really curious how it was done.

Fabulous colors and focus. To my mind the most well done sign picture in the whole challenge. Did you crop the bottom off or did it just come out of the camera that way. It would have been nice to not have that little bit cropped off but might have been impossible.

This is a nicely taken picture; however, how can one tell that this is a miniature stadium? If you had put a full size baseball in the stadium it would have made all the difference - then it would have been instantly obvious that this was a minature stadium.
