I absolutely love this piece. A lovely warm glow around the diners, a subtle grey sky muting the buildings. And the women with the apron, she is probably listening to a request by a diner, yet the turn of her left foot gives her a winsome look.
The contrast in the colors of the building and sky with that of the street cafe scene, invokes an idea that these diners have left a stagnate job in the city and are now relaxing in the warmth of companionship and sharing what really matters.

I may be way off but that is what I got from the piece. It's gorgeous.

Thank you very much for the wonderful critique! I enjoy the details and emotions you see in this photo, from the wait staff's expressive pose to the general atmosphere of the scene. I'm glad to know it works so well!

Yeah it was fairly hot on this day I'm sure. But since it's evening (and with a cold beer) then it's not so bad. Great yakitori in this area for sure!
