Critique Welcomed Lightly Lit

[Aaron Quinn]

I have noticed there is one type of subject I continue to return to when out photographing. I have come to call it the "Lightly Lit" and it fascinates me for some reason. There are some neon signs mixed in as I just can't walk past a neon sign without it grabbing my attention.
No real theme here other than exposing for the light so most everything else is dark.
Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated!

IMO, they are all stunning photos. I suppose it's not easy to shoot light sources like these without having something strange and unnatural in the photo, but to me these look perfect. And the framings are well chosen. The first photo, however, for me has a much higher artistic quality than the others and I can't explain why. Congratulations

Thank you. I agree with that first one. I noticed the hotel sign and at first it was all I wanted in the frame but then noticed the big-rigs that were driving through this small Utah town (Kanab) so I set the shutter for 2 seconds, leaned up against a street sign pole to brace myself and took a good 20-30 photos as they drove by. This is the only one really seemed for work.

They look very professional to me. Well done, Aaron.

I like these a lot; there is something about these neon signs that calls for a night shot. Great stuff!
