Thank you Melbob. I had not tried using this camera for night shots before I took this, and I remembered being REALLY surprised at how it turned out. My previous camera was a Minolta A1 P&S, and anything above ISO 100 came out horribly noisy. By the way, the "F" is the sign for the Fremont Casino, which is just up the block from the tavern. I confess it ended up in the picture by dumb luck...... Kay

This really stands out Kay, both luminance contrast and colour. I like the composition, I did not see the previous version but this is fine.

Love the "f" to provide that 'balance' and pleased to see the use of vivid contrasty colours as well. Good Post Kay ~ Regards Melbob

It fairly POPS off the screen, Kay. Looking good! ~Lydia

Thanks, Lydia. And I have straightened it up a bit, though I had a hard time deciding how to guage if it was level. I ended up targeting the bottom of the triangle......Kay

WAY cool photo, Kay. I like it. Perhaps a tad bit of rotation to the right to level it up? Or either go more to the left to make it purposely off kilter. As Lonnit said "As I always say, if you're going to break a rule, SHATTER IT, or it merely looks like an error. " Good entry. ~Lydia
