For me, this image is all about atmosphere. This is a image of a everyday event that is not truly notice. Thoughts and empty emotions are being shared over coffee. This image takes more than a glance to fully appreciate. I can smell the coffee now. Well done and thanks for sharing. Also, it's nice to meet you too.

You captured the cozy atmosphere very well, Pnina. I like, also, the composition with vertical and horizontal lines. It would, also, work well in B&W.

I think colour still works better as the warm light enhances the atmospher of the cafe. Interesting to see different expression & dining behaviour of those diners.

Besides the warm atmosphere and nice framing of the couple it brings back fond memories of all the cups of coffee I have had in similar places.

I like the atmosphere you captured here, Pnina: very warm, almost intimate. I wonder what it wood look like cropping a bit on the right, the ey tend to move there away from the focal point of the couple.

To all of you.

 

 

Alberto, I will upload a B/W version, you are right, I did it before uploading the colored one, but decided that the cafe light is better transfering the atmospher.

 

Paula, I don't think I want to crop that side as IMO it helps to accentuate the atmospher of cafe with people, not only the couple in the FG.

 

David, nice of you, thanks for your visit.

Nice colors, nice mood...the front couple makes the story...the rest participate to create atmosphere and mood of this evening rendez-vous in a very smooth and elegant way...cheers, Laurent

nope, no offense to Alberto, but color really creates the soft warm mood here... very inviting and enveloping. Like the voyeuristic charm to the protagonists closest the window. Are they on the verge of a "we-have-to-talk"/"I think we should start to see other people" conversations, or simply at a lull in their chat? Tons of possibilities for the viewer to ponder. Well done

I like your sneak peek inside. The warm yellow cast creates the perfect mood. I also appreciate the slight motion blur creating the action of the place.

Hello Pnina,

 

I love the freedom I see in this photo. It is difficult for me to explain my feelings seeing these people simply living their lives. A good moment, perhaps an insignificant moment, but frozen in time, these people in your photo are sharing this casual moment and their confidence to live in a chaotic world and seeing them doing so helps us to do the same. Thanks for your simple photo about "Coffee time" 2007.

 

My best regards, ~Sky

Jef and Kent, good and funny definitions( voyeurist , protagonist, sneak inside), all of them are right ;-)), I pass on that street often, and I was attracted to the inside ,which is well seen in the outside, beacuse of the nice glass constractions. I could not hear what they were talking about Jef, but what was interesting to me is the visual side and what the light was doing to the place and people.The atmospher of a popular way of coffee time...

 

Sky, as always, well written, thank

I like to see people having a good time in a cafe in the evening. Nice atmosphere with soft light and warm colors. Mondrian-like dark lines introducing a comfortable rhythm into this image.
