Its a fixture of St. Louis. Again, the telephone lines need to go but they are part of the scene. Raw to Jpg and then added Fievels GG. Comments always welcome.

What a great place!! I disagree about the utility lines--they are to be expected in a scene like this and to clone them out would make the scene look a little odd. You did a nice job with the GG action. I think this kind of image calls for a straight shot (no glow) or at least one where any GG is toned down and very subtle, especially the color since GG tends to supersaturate the colors in wild and wacky ways sometimes. So many interesting elements to this place. Love the name of this place--is it still open? The light fixtures above the sign and their long shadows are fabulous!! This is a wonderful subject with lots of potential for many interesting compositions. Thanks for sharing, Todd.

So what was the food like? I think the telephone lines gives this shot it's "tough, inner-city" character. Nice work. The GG gives this shot a historic feel which I think works well here.
