 This is a general store/gas station in CT. It always has vintage cars out front and from what i can tell the ATM sign is the only new thing.

I really wanted some clouds but mother nature would play along. I did cropping, saturation and curves in CS3.

like this shot...to bad the shadows of the lights are on the General Store sign...seems like level/curves would help with the wash out of the building, might have helped with the red in the photo too...

I wish the red were more saturated in this, that would make it pop more for me... Something is lacking here but I can't put my finger on it. I think that the composition is just a little too dull perhaps?
