Which ones surprised you? Have any top picks end up getting lost in the neon glow?
Show the Neon challenge surprises that you had. Please - not your own, being surprised by your personal result is usually not surprising. :D
Thought for sure these two were ribbon candidates.

Also in my top 3 - came in 36th?
Felt like these came up way short as well.

Thanks David! I had hopes but 5-1's and 5-2's do not a ribbon make. :-P
Congrats on your first ribbon with a great shot! |

<--34th - I thought it had a fantastic vintage 1940s era appeal, a nice sense of time and place in addition to the neon. This was my blue ribbon.
<--24th - Again, conveyed a nice sense of place and time. Loved the reflection in the wet street.

Thanks Barry Glad Dad, I don't think I've ever had a mention in one of these threads before :-)
Anyway, I really liked this shot, it did come 28th, which isn't that bad, but still under rated.

Thanks UNCLEBRO and THANK YOU for adding it to your favourites!
This is one of my favourite neon signs in Chicago. The shot I entered in the challenge is a re-shoot of one I had taken earlier in the year (I'll post this one later today).
It was a PB for me, but I had hoped it would score at least a 6.
Edit to add: The original has not been posted on this or any other website.
