This is a very nice image, under-rated IMO.

Really nice retro building and signage. I really like the twilight.

What a cool and retro looking old diner/gas station. You've made the most of your timing to get the daylight to balance the neon so nicely, and processing is superb with the pastel look.

I like this image! I think this would be well suited for selective desat.

Nicely done! the peppermint twist treatment is 100% spot on for the era and the tone of the message.

It just shows you what difference attention to detail makes. When I saw the tumbnail. it looked like a roadside snapshot ... now it looks like a photjournalism shot illustrating a story in a quality magazine

I love this picture. It makes me feel like I'm in a Johnny Rockets or something and this photo is on the wall. I am way too young to know the 50s, but this makes me feel like I'm in them. I would love to have this photo hanging in my house.

Very coo! I'm curious to find out where this is. I like the lighting and how the Phillips sign stands out. Too bad about the tree in the upper right. I think if that were removed, your image would be even better.

this could have been really great but there seems to by some focus/sharpness issues...

Wow, that's a throw back. Really cool image. I like the desaturation of the foreground.
