Neon light correction
Here is a photo I took the other night of our downtown. One thing that bothered me were the sections of neon that were burned out on the building with the "wave" roofline. Normally they are on, but it appears maintenance has been a little slow it repairing them. I decided to do the job myself. Too bad repairs aren't this easy in real life!

Before:




After:



It was tough getting the correct curve in the section all the way to the right, but I think it's convincing enough.

that quick "repair" you've done in this picture is convincing and if you don't tell, nobody will ever notice.

Re: Neon light correction
I agree with Whaler ... If you hadn't told us we'd never know ... So where is 'your' downtown?

Re: Neon light correction
Thanks, guys. "My" downtown is in Grand Rapids, MI, conveniently nestled about two hours between Detroit and Chicago. Now if I could only get to Chicago and take some downtown night pictures, I'd be all set (Detroit is a dump, so I'm not going to waste my time there).

As a fellow Michigander, you're right about Detroit. Nice jbo on the lights.

Re: Neon light correction
there really does seem to be a huge echo in the forum. I have never seen 2 double posts in a row!
