Coffee on Park Ave

TonyCooper

Ordinarily, I don't explain shots. But, this was taken on Park Avenue
in Winter Park, Florida. Park Avenue is the...well...the Park Avenue of
this area...posh upper-income shopping street. This person just doesn't
fit for the locale. The cute little purse-dog doesn't fit for the person.
That's a bible and an e-tablet on the table.

The whole scene is full on incongruities I hope it shows up that way to viewers.

Tony, have some faith in your viewers! Let us probe and push and (mis)-intrepret it.

And, FWIW, to me, everything about that man screams too much money. His dress (only the very rich can dress that poorly in public),the toy dog, the extended pinky! I would have guessed laptop instead of e-reader. And those boots!

Wonderful, wonderful shot, Tony. A bit contrasty, but a great image that yells for itself, without the explanation. :-)

Yes, on second thought, I should have omitted the explanation.
It doesn't need the incongruity that I saw, based on the locale,
to be interesting.
