    Hi Lynn!

    I love your shot! It's very moody, probably because of the B&W and the lighting. It even makes me wonder what they're talking about... :D

    Thanks so much for sharing!
    Take care!

    This shot is very evocative - moody and contrasty - I wonder if it is men in a play, brothers giving and recieving advice, gangsters conspiring...soooo many possibilities. Great stuff.

    That is exactly what this picture communicates to me, makes me wonder what they are talking about, very nice.

    Very nice and interesting shot!
    Very dramatic! I think they are having a serious discussion wheather a man can drink beer out of coffiee cup or not. :D

    You could call it "The Great Debate"! Tastes great, less filling. Maybe they're talking about their choice of plastic surgeon. Or back to alcohol, the calorie count of beer vs hard likker. Except the guy's cup on the right might be a coffee cup. Don't Drink and Drive? Laughing.gifne_nau.gif Well shot, in any case!

    With the harsh overhead lighting I thought it was a play too, but now with the location...

    Cheers

    Looks like the man on the right is giving some sort of advice to the younger.

    I like your photo, Lynn!
    And I think you did it right, when you choose b&w.

    have you thought about putting that into the photo challenge 46- opposites?
    that seems like it would be a good fit...
