Comment from Maureen Woychyshyn
Some of the best places to eat are greasy spoon places. At least their food taste good. Composition use of black-and-white and presentation as well done. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks Maureen, it's a funky little place that you would drive right by if you didn't know to look for it. Mostly local people go there but it does great business. Just don't go if you're looking for good coffee .... LOL

Thanks Brian, I had a few shots to choose from and couldn't so I asked a few friends which one they liked and everyone picked this one. Maybe I'll submit one of the others for a different contest. Thank you for your review.

Thank you MK, it's a cool little hole in the wall. The coffee is awful but the breakfast is outstanding and the owner is an interesting character.

The grain and light in this photo give it a classic, almost cinematic feel. A masterful play between light and shadow. Beautiful composition and lighting.The absence of colour enhances the clarity of the message. Well done! Good luck!

Thanks so much, it was a cool spot. Even in color, the scene was interesting but it definitely took on a more retro vibe in black and white.

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine and full composition gives us a good look of old time stuff. Textures, tones and detail are good. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!
