 This is Legends Shopping Mall in KS, home to many cool places including a converse store (which my daughter loves me to get her stuff from) a dinosaur restaurant, a very cool smoke stack tower and a lot of cool public art.

One thing (of many things) I love about visiting the states is the fact that yoou often see painting/advertising on walls, which is really cool and different to the UK. Also for some reason your brickwork looks better than ours (I think it may be to do with thepointing you use and the fact that the bricks are a different hue)

Anyhoo....I love the fact that when wandering around I can see things which I guess would strike most locals as nothing much but which strike ne as having great beauty. This D&B sign is one of them

Like others have said - the use of selective desat works well here - i also like the texture of the brick here. i think that having the lamps not perpendicular would be my major gripe - it's a darn good image overall.

I am not a huge fan of selective desat, but you pilled it off in this one. I love it.
Only sour is the distortion.

I love the perspective here. I know you love the dsat with a bit of color, which is fun, but I would like to see the color version of this. Nice shot.

And I thought that the D&B sign had something to do with the boy in you wanting to play the arcades...

I love the angle here and the PP makes it almost appear as if it was taken during the day which the lights on say no. Quite cool. As for sour, I guess I'd try to decrease the red hue a smidge to better mesh with the b/w. Nice desat, again, though.
