Candid grab.

'Caffe Duomo' ... I don't warm to Caffe Duomo. It is a pretentious place for yuppies to promenade, but two days ago several real people were there ... for a change.

... someone must have influenced me to have me take this shot and it wasn't (perhaps) Lisette Model (born Elise Felic Amelie Stern) I'm guessing ... so who does narrative work?

Maybe it was someone from Holland. The colours are Rembrandtesque ..... yeah!!! ... that would be it, some Dutch bloke's influence ... Dewey Egbert.

Warren.

PS, no camera shake ... that is most unlike me. Damn good coffee hey!

Warren that's a good one.

Thank you Greg.

'The Unknown Soldier'.

Candid grab, 20mph driveby.

Nice ones,Warren..the first could be any time since 1960-in the second what appeals to me is how the soldier is isolated on the other side of the lights.

-thought good coffee was measured by how much you shake ?

Street cat,begging.

A sharp dressed man. $300.00 leather NFL jacket,jewelry,MP3 player,new shoes,pants. :confused: Makes me wonder...

Certainly not the guy centre background with a finger up his nose.

Here's Mine. It was taken a few years back at a local surfing competition. Only a little boost in contrast done - colors left the same.

Hi, Nice image, but mind if I make a suggestion? Crop the sky completely out, right to the waters horizon. IMO, That would help to make this image POP.
