 The Columbus Dispatch sign downtown near the statehouse.
Was a cold night and I got up on the top of my truck with my tripod getting odd glances of passersby at 2am.
My first real experience with RAW and have to say that I'm liking Capture One.
Some adjustments layers in PSCS2 after raw adjustments in Capture One.

Great shot I really like the feel in the shot the way you have frammed the subject. I like the way the soft light refelcts of the building and the soft tones

Feel like the subject is a little distant.

Huh? Didn't I just see this from someone else. Both had a great idea, but the other is much shaper in sign detail and building lighting.

I think this would have benefited from a tighter crop. The building distracts as it is the main subject. With a tighter crop the neon would be more prominent.
