    I like the warm, late afternoon feel of this photo, even though I'm in sunny Southern California and it's like that pretty much year-round here. :D

    Well done! thumb.gif

    I like photos that really make me look around and this one does. And you even have the sun reflecting off an upper window thumb.gif

    Good job Azzaro and wonderful processing :D

    I see its a meat market and mexican food, but there's a shrimp on the side window..do they have seafood too? Do you eat there?

    Howdy Azzaro,

    Neat looking place, I'll be they have some good food in there.

    I like the nice warm light, and post processing.

    Very nicely done.

    Be interested to hear more about it, also what town it's in.
    Take care,

    Great shot Azzaro!!! The colors and composition are perfect, and one somehow "feels" being really in the place.

    I'm getting really fan of your way of shooting... keep sharing clap.gif!!!

    Thanks Panther for the nice comment.........The pic. was taken in Buckeye AZ., which is about 40 miles west of Phoenix... I moved to AZ. from back east and have been here for close to 35 years, but never got into Mexican food.

    REally nice one - I like the finish you gave it. Was the sun setting to give that rich color? Did you take it from your truck? I don't know if I would stand out there to take that picture in fear of lots of questions... eek7.gif

    Eia...It was a pic. I have been working on for awhile. I would go to town at different times of day looking at the lighting. I finally decided to go late on Sunday because the place would be closed, no trucks parked in front of it, and very little traffic in the street, and I thought it would look better with soft lighting. The lighting was a little flat do to the sun being really low in the sky and hidden by other buildings.
    Yes, I did shoot from the truck, mostly because it is where I would have stood to shoot it...... As for questions, they would have been in Spanish. I dont speak Spanishheadscratch.gifrolleyes1.gif azzaro

    You've been shooting out of the box lately and coming up with some real nice images. However, it's good to see you back in the orange crate again. :D I love the warm tones in this one. thumb.gif

    Yo Azzaro,

    I don't care if you're in the box, out of the box, or hiding on the roof. You keep pumping them out like this, and I'll keep applauding.

    Take care,

    Tom
