Neon Nostalgia

The Blue Swallow Motel in Tucumcari, NM on Route 66. I shot this image in 2016. When I arrived at 7am, the lights were out and the sky wasn't so dramatic. Luckily, the management turned on the neon signs for me. While my original shots were good, I wanted to make them pop. I heavily retouched them and added the sunset sky from my own collection.
