Table for Ten

Same restaurant in Cold Spring Village. Comments are most

welcome, thanks for looking.

Holger,

  Wonderful image with beautiful lighting, it is like stepping back in time.  Take care, Patsy

I agree. The lighting and mood are wonderful. If it was my image I would have stressed the formality of the setting a bit more, keeping it a bit straighter. But that's probably just the boring scientist in me. In any case, I love the mood and feel of the image.

I certainly agree with the previous comments.  I would add that there is a remarkable contrast between the dark tonality and texture of the chairs, table settings, and wall art and the bright tonality and delicate texture of the drapery.  In fact, you captured what possibly is the drape catching a slight breeze.

My best,

michael

The scene for me has all the quality of a film setting from "The Untouchables" The table awaits Elliot Ness and his men, or maybe even Al Capone : - )

Great light and atmosphere!

Best Regards

Unique, great composition. Regards

Holger, nothing like the light from a window, the way it fads as the table goes on, good observation

Beautiful photograph with exquisite lighting. One can feel that homely warmth around the table.  Probably a family restaurant.  Great shot!

I've been away for a couple days so I apologize for not responding sooner. Thank you all for looking and the great comments see you soon.

the antique tone sheds a nice warmth on the wood, Holger... a warm group of 10... ;-} dp

Hi Donna, Yes a warm group of ten, that's great. Thanks for stopping by. See you soon.

Holger

I love how this photo could have been taken yesterday or 127 years ago. Great work.

It is the lighting and processing that draw me into this shot and my curiosity takes over.  An excellent shot taken in Cold Spring Farm Grange Restaurant in the Historic Cold Spring Village.  I have found your Cape may images so interesting and now learning about this place just adds to my growing interest and making it a 'for sure' spot to visit if we do come to Cape May in the future. I hope the weather from down South hasn't affected Cape May or you very much Holger!

Ricardo and Gail thanks for the great comments on this image. Gail, Cape may does indeed have some great things to do in and around the area and I'm sure you and your family would enjoy yourselves. And it's fantastic from a photographers point of view;-)

Holger

What a pleasure to view  - love the toning and soft window light.

Best, David

Thanks David, I appreciate the comment and visit, see you soon.
