End of the evening - # 08/201

It's late and the restaurants along the Kew Rd at the entry to Richmond will soon close. The inner rooms are cleared and the outside tables are deserted. A couple of lads head down into the centre to seek out the late night clubs nearer the railway station and the river. Cars stream home. The lights of the restaurants throw their colour tones into the night and the camera records them, white balance adjusted for the spectrum and exposure set to minimise the glare. Out in the back yard the rubbish of the evening is being bagged and binned. The photographer takes a last snap, packs up his bag and tripod, and heads for home.
