I did not know those still existed............all of the ones here are gone......cost too much to upkeep according to ATT

As with most of your photographs, you manage to pull off very simple scenes and make them interesting.

In reply to Art Scott's comment, the Orlando (FL) railroad station has a row of wooden telephone booths with the old-style payphones on the wall. Not the modern stainless things as in your photo, but the old black out-from-the-wall phones. The are active. I have a photo of them, but I don't like to add my pix to a thread.

Thanks Tony. What a nice thing to write.

I understand that with this state of the art technology, if they install enough of them we would not have to carry our own personal phones with us anymore! Now that would be progress.

Nice take on them!

I'm new here (first post even) and just wanted to say that I love this image! It IS like capturing the extinct and reminded me of a recent trip where we saw actual photo booths on the side of the streets. Although a camera is always with me, it was the shot I didn't get . At least I get to look at yours!
