A Tired Salaryman Trudges Home, Cheered by the Light of the Soda Machines

There is a reason (perhaps many)  why a man lives less than his wife but lives longer than a single men. He is caught between two hard soda machines and ultimately, a soft place. (*_*)

Hi Jack,

This is a great scene! The subject was very generous to you for dressing in all black, collar up and slightly slumped shoulders! Did you see him coming?  His energy tells a strong story, especially in contrast to the bright, clean machines full of junk. Very imaginative and well worth the time I imagine you put into this.

Great!

Well composed and exposed. It tell a story all by itself. Good photography and use of a camera.  Jerry

Agree with previous comments, this is a great photograph.  Your choice of colour is appropriate and I like a bit of that symmetry with lines on the pavement, the two trees and the two machines.  Nice one Jack!

Perfectly captured story.... Mike

I agree with the other comments, just wanted to chime in. I like that he's not precisely centered, but has more room in front than behind. There's symmetry, but it's not contrived for symmetry's sake and form only. There's a story here.

This is pure McRitchie.Excellent as usual.
