 Across the street from a Chinese food place. Took a long exposure to try and get customers moving inside but apparently they were moving too fast.

This photo suffers from overexposure in some places (signs, menus). Try a higher ISO setting and a slightly faster exposure.

It appears camera was not adjusted properly to photograph neon signs.

I like the idea but it lacks a focal point.

Focus & sharpness is way off on this.
I didn't really see any imagination / composition in this shot. Simply taking a picture of someone's business sign really isn't a plus for your shot.
Had there been a rush of people going in/out (long exposure) or something to go along with the image to help the composition, it would have done a lot better in my opinion.

Good subject matter but you need a tripod to avoid the camera shake.

not enough in focus for me to get much out of this picture.
