Default The short story of a coffee break (or more than that?)

Here I am telling you a little story of a coffee break ... created while sipping on my own espresso in one of the many street cafés in Venice. Thanks for looking, hope you liked it!

Wonderful candids! the out takes of the cane on the table and looking through the gentleman's glasses are so very creative--you have a gift!

Upon first looking at your pictures I thought, very simple, but I had to keep going back to the elder man and the photo starts making me think about the wisdom & knowledge this man must have. There is probably more than a short story there. Good job!

Creative and technically well-done, too. The second is my favorite - I really like how his in-focus face is balanced by the 2 out of focus people. And the light is very good as well.

Very nice work.

Thanks, Joanne... Looking through someone else`s glasses, in other words, trying to see the world with someone else`s viewpoint... that is interesting, always.
