Everyone always asks the question, Who's better? Pat's or Geno's? Well, Pats has no bling lighting, so on this specific night, it had to be Geno's ;)

Though, I must admit, I eat at Genos instead of pats anyways.

I can't believe how short the line was! I was kinda hoping for the line to be in the street. Usually, the lines from both pats and genos go out into the middle of the street, and makes it impossible to drive through there. It was such a nice night out tonight too...

Good shot of Geno's. It makes me want some of their cheese fries. Tell me the one tall guy that works there real late at night doesn't remind you of Lurch from the Addam's Family.

I think a tighter frame from just the "Geno's Steaks" up would have made for a more interesting shot and take some of the choas from the bottom away - my eye wonders around a little much there. But I think this is quite good for such a busy picture!

rotate a little ccw and make it a full point better :-) Strong and sharp, beautifully rendered.

I love that the lighting has such good white color and is not cast toward yellow. A great night scene. Makes me want to go find this place.

Great shot! I envisioned something like this but had nothing around. Too bad that passing car blocked the table of diners. It would have been slightly better, but I'll bet it was busy there. A 10 for perfect exposure.

I love this. It has kind of a vintage poster feel to it. I think even the cars look kind of cool in it.

This is about perfect for an advertizing photo. You should try to sell it to them.
