Street cafe trading opportunity - England 6th December 07- # 314
Climate change (a modern term for "it's sunnier and warmer than it used to be") has brought to England the benefits of the street cafe open air life style. However, there are still some limitations. In part, these limitations are related to the fact that this year "it's a great deal less sunny and far much wetter than it used to be".
I always like black & white photography especially when it is raining. Excellent shot.
ReplyDeleteVery moody and nicely done for that. Using B&W on a damp, gray day with a lot of depth and a single figure gives it a melancholy feel.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what he's got in that bag?
ReplyDeleteI love the chain barrier around the table and chairs!
ReplyDeleteIs it to protect the patrons from the great unwashed?
Black and white works so well here. Good to see the ole National Lottery sign at the newsagents on the right. Brings back a bit of Blighty to me here in Polska!

At least you have what appear to be metal chairs. Here they are often rattan and get mighty wet when it rains. Not that it rains often!
ReplyDeleteNice photo, Chuckeroon. Really moody in black and white. Wrap up warm it says and have a coffee at home!
The man has a cooked chicken in his bag. My guess.
Typically British weather! Warm and wet winters, we still have roses blooming her.
