The Underground Man

Crepe cafe, Seattle

I quite like this shot. Taken with the M2 and a new Color-Skopar lens provided by my uncle. I stopped for a late lunch of a crepe on a weekend afternoon and the place as almost empty. There is a bar on the other side of the wall that had the usual collection of rummies (probably interesting material as well).

I found it a nice peaceful scene and wondered how well it might be captured in b&w. I find it interesting that I cannot see anything in the scene that would definitely indicate the era it is from. It could have been taken, I think, anytime from 1920 onwards. Kind of cool because of that.
