I love this shot. It lights up the Route 66 just like it was still the main highway, but the old Restaurant reminds us that it is no longer. This is a wonderful "American" Americana picture.

Great photo. Interesting composition.

Love the composition and the color as well as the dark unknown sky and bright lights nearer earth.
