As much as I hate eating out in public places, this is somehow calming. It says to me, "life goes on - you can eat in public." You have no idea what a nice feeling that is.

I've never been much good at capturing moments like this - I can seem to shoot humans, even with a camera. Probably, a lot of it is my lack of having a camera around in these types of moments. I should stop being so lazy. LOL I really admire this genre of work, and you are so incredible with it!!!

aw, thanks, christy. your opinion means a lot. i just try to carry a camera with me at all times so that in these cases, i can shoot away!

great! there are so many things to concentrate on but still it works fine as complete-work!
apart from that (and the fact that I just love diner-photographs like this one) I totally fancy the noise here!
(I'm going bring my AE-1 film to the lab today - it's been quite a while since I developped the last one ^^ )

Old white guys and a young black couple. What a contrast. Diners at night are such a nice place to be. It gives you plenty to look at without finding it too busy. The one guy cleaning his glasses and the other with his mouth open. You have the moment. Nice one.
