Description
East St. Louis: Stop Light RestaurantTaken yesterday while Matt and I took a drive into St. Louis, and thus passed through East St. Louis.
They had a bit of Storm damage from the past week's storms, which is why the sign looks a bit odd, one of the beams holding it up slipped and is at an odd angle.
Enjoy.

That "luck" person is lying.
This is very neat.
Looks like a post-apocalyptic diner.
hah.

Yeah. It's a shame though, I drove by the area where this was at recently and they had to take the sign down completely. Now they have a small wooden sign, not nearly as neat as this one.

Well, it would have fallen down soon if they wouldn't have taken it down, so I understand why they did.

The acromyn "ESL" makes me think of "English as a Second Language" programs. Nice shot though. I like the grain and the colors are fantastic. The composition is a bit weak though. Composing the sign tightly in the lower right corner would have cropped out the power lines and street lights that detract from the retro beauty of the sign.

I actually tried a tighter crop and it just didn't do it for me the way this one does.

Well I didn't really mean tighter crop. I meant more tightly composed into the corner when taking the shot not zoomed in anymore or cropped tighter. Just a suggestion.
