The sunlight on the colors together with the angles make this shot fun, and the viewer can even imagine him/herself sitting there, waiting for enchiladas and rice and beans to arrive.
Well done!

Many people I know are working two jobs. They're all working themselves into an early grave. I have one friend working three.

There's always somebody out there with a big sign, advertising another restaurant across the street. There's plenty of traffic, and a bus stop right in front.

Thank you.

Don't get me wrong, James - I love this photo, but I'm not sure about the salt cellar. I think I would have left it out.

Still a great pic though!

hoaxeye In reply to 22thorn [2010-10-18 10:58:31 +0000 UTC]

I tried several different angles and exposures, and tried it without the salt shaker and ended up with the first pic I snapped. Somehow it adds something.

Thank you very much.

Thank you. Tell me what you think, maybe a bit of Edward Hopper?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

DouglasHumphries In reply to hoaxeye [2010-10-10 17:26:44 +0000 UTC]

..yes - a 'bit' Hopperish - but Hopper was more soft and loose - this is vivid and hard - however I do see the connection .... I think it's a crime that this has only a few views - but that's DA for you ... this is an excellent piece !

hoaxeye In reply to DouglasHumphries [2010-10-11 07:08:36 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much. You're right of course, the light in New England is different. Out here it's vivid, hard," as well as harsh and unforgiving. Not sure if it's a crime exactly, but I appreciate the sentiment.

I'm not much of a "schmoozer". When my kid had my password, he joined me in two clubs. His heart was in the right place, but I haven't posted anything to them. Maybe I should.
