 This is a photo of the entrance to the California Theater in San Bernardino, Cal. Our daughter was performing there that night. When it was built in 1928 it was the county's most ornate theater. It was originally designed for movies but also hosted vaudville acts and other performances. It is being restored to it's original condition.

Appreciate the great old marquee..... some possibilities for this foto - a square crop to eliminate the car hood and a touch of highlight reduction. Saturation and colour work are to my liking... fyi 7

This has a really nice "nostalgic" aura about it...the "soft" works nice here...it compliments the lighting quite perfectly.

a tighter crop would make this better, i think.

Nice picture. The car on the bottom seem distracting, maybe crop that out. I like the softness.

This would be a really great shot in my opinion if oyu had been able to get rid of the cars. I like the slight blur/glow and the tones.

I really liked this photo, especially the soft focus effect, until I saw the car at the bottom.
