Pike's Market is a busy place morning until night, so it is hard to get images without people in them here. The exception is early in the morning before the delivery trucks show up and unload. It was raining and this added the reflections of the neon signs' colors to the cobblestone street.

Thanks for the votes! The other Pike's Market image was probably taken in the afternoon, so 12 hours and 5 minutes apart because there was no retail business going on at 10 until 5AM.
This shot has great colors and is well composed. I really like the reflections in the wet pavement...makes me feel like I'm there. Would like the neon to be a little sharper but I know that is a tricky so I'm back to bump you up to 8.
About 5 minutes earlier than the other entry, got to love the market in the rain or anytime really. My guess you were about F/22 judging from the star bursts and black sky. Sharp image.
Good use of the wet bricks, like to have seen the word Public all the way in the shot and maybe some blurry passer bys and framed longer in height.
Great job!
