So sad. This was one of my favorite stores, too. I like the darkness of this picture, it really sets a sombre mood. My only suggestion would be to frame it so that the sign was further to the right. I feel like i am moving quickly out of the frame with it so close to the right edge. karmat

excellent use of darkness to convey a mood here... good job on providing enough detail to see the building... good shot :) - jmsetzler

Was this taken at night, it seems very dark and those lights at the bottom make me wonder. I have no idea who Montgomery Ward are, do I need to know before I can judge this or is it just a generally run down looking building. Sorry, not sure about this at all.

Comment by jsabbarton:
This picture is a little too dull for my liking. The image itself is quite powerful; perhaps a hint of colour would have added atmosphere – even sepia perhaps? The darkness of the image was – I think – intentional in order to add drama, but it only seems to remove detail rather than add ambience. Sorry, I hate being negative, but I think the message was great, but it got lost somewhere…

I like the atmosphere. Very LA Confidential-ish, even.

Too dark.

The sky is a little too light - makes the subject of the photo too dark. And the bright light in the bottom left is very distracting.
