I like the subject matter of this but I'm not too sure about the colors. Just curious, did you try to make it HDR?

I love the effect of the colors here!

Yes I did. As a night shot under neon lighting, the HDR effect gave it some depth.

let me rephrase that...I like the colors and how it looks like a painting (it would be great on a wall) but not sure about it for a newspaper.

Duh, you are right and i uploaded revised image without HDR . It helps if I read the instructions Thanks.

wonderful I'm glad you changed it. My vote will definitely be higher now!
