Cool!

Very vibrant. I want popcorn! I love that glow around the name of the theater. The shapes at the top are kind of creepy, like eyes and a screaming mouth. I would maybe crop a slice off the top as the black is a little overpowering.

A little dark on top but, I want popcorn too.

Balanced.. .

Bradley, your hand is steady. Red and White--and the crystal lights-make for a strong graphics. The horizontal lines are well aligned throughout the image. Robin's monster is creepy, cute, too--is there a horror show playing? ;-)

Good framing

makes this shot work - see the horizontal lines coming "out" from the bottom of the curving sign? If the roof shape cannot be brought out of the picture (conical, like a witch's hat?) then perhaps crop about half of the shy and darken in the windows. This will get a more balanced shot and may not look too silly if the eye thinks that the upper bit is just darkened sky/building.

Thanks

I appreciate the complements and suggestions. There is too much darkness in the upper portion. I will try to bring out some details or crop the dark areas. - Brad

Wow,

Bradley, is it showing "Cinema Paridiseo"? Composition, color, sharp as hell -- an unusually emotive scene for reasons I can't express -- what more can we ask?
