Photographer's Request for Critique

Spurr of the moment shot
A mix of fading daylight and artificial light, is one of my favorite
types of photos. I used a Canon 50 MM 1.8 lens for this shot.
Comments are welcome. I did up the saturation a bit before uploading.

I do not understand the point of this picture.

Nice
Great shot of the neon light; what can be seen of the store indicates a very old building, the lower store section trim appears to be late 1940's or early 1950's, stop again next time to get some inside shots, please.

It's one of my favorite type of photos too J ....... boyhood memories of streets like this. Glad you blocked traffic and shared it - really.

Your photo makes the little shop look like a welcome haven on a rainy evening! - still thanking and thinking of you, Gary

Memories...
I was a kid when Kane's first opened and I lived in the same block. I think that this picture captures the feelings of those who patronized this spot in the dreary early morning or late evening hours.

Memories
Without the doughnut sign it looks just like a spot in Cicero Il. November 1954. Somethings trigger memories from long ago.

Great shot J! As others said, even if you don't know Kane's personally, it is reminiscent of many quickly disappearing old shops.
The poor folks who have only eaten dunkin and krispy cream (yuck!)
