Dinner date, a photo from California, West

Photographer's Note

US is coming out of one of the most severe recessions in history. Eating out has fallen out of favor. In many restaurants in my neighborhood three years ago we had to wait 20 minutes to get a table. Now most seats remain empty the whole day, providing privacy to the few who arrive.

Hi Animesh, A super night shot, there is some nice subtlety, the person silhouetted to the left is a brilliant addition, TFS, kind regards Wilson.

Hi Aminesh,
A subtle scene, with that Leica tone. The silhouette in the doorway I like and I especially like the lights, internal and relfected, they dance around the image. It makes me think this could look interesting in B&W too.
Cheers
Justin

Superb mood. How true. This time I found what you say to be true in Anaheim on a Friday night. The Bar cum Restaurant closed by 10 pm. We were the last guests.
