Steak House Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

This photo was taken when I went to Oklahoma last year. This was a very good steak house that the locals recommended me. People inside were wearing cowboy hats and boots. The meat was excellent.
I hope you'll like this photo

hello there, daniel

huh. from the thumbnail this did not look attractive at all. but hey... it HAS to be opened big. i love the mood and the reflective sky does a good job at enhancing that. good catch with that street light being out. i feel, the scene would not be the same with it lit. i like your partial desaturation here as well. works nicely. an elegant way to show the special mood of an ordinary place.

my compliments and TFS

I absolutely agree with Kristaps, this shot is not meant for thumbnails. I really like the 80s feel to the scene, it's easy to imagine Michael Jackson dancing in these streets :) the partial desaturation creates an interesting effect and nicely emphasises the red signs.
this is really good, Daniel, excellent work.
take care,
Kristine

Hi Daniel,
This is a haunting picture. Very nice atmosphere captured quite wonderfully. The partial desaturation was a great idea here.
Well done.
