Loved number 6, but went with number 5 in the end for the great neon glow.

It will take a while for me to wash no. 4 out of my brain

I thought 4 was pretty unique, so it got my vote.

No.5 for me ..love those American art-deco-ish signs.

Ayreonaut · #5 Posted **Sep 9, 2012, 8:18 PM**

2 or 5 for me.

#5 is pretty epic. Funny, as the shot probably wouldn't have worked nearly as good without the wet pavement.

I went with #3, even though it wasn't one sign...the collection of the signs is over the top. #5 is also great, it was a touch decision.

Toss up between 5 and 8. I went with 8 - nice colors and lines.

Lipani · #9 Posted **Sep 12, 2012, 3:11 AM**

I liked 2 and 8 the most, but 4 I didn't see coming at all.

I enjoy 2 the best. I really like the composition. Light on over the one window, light off over the window with the neon sign in the window. The composition of the wall, etc.

I went with #2... there was just something evocative about the lighting and coloring... It struck a chord.

Love #5. #4 is funny as hell

Xander202 · #13 Posted **Sep 14, 2012, 11:01 PM**

number 2 is the best in my opinion, very simple but yet so evocative. Love the atmosphere and the colours.
