Inside the "Double D"

- The Do-Nut Dinette on Colley Avenue in Norfolk Virginia is one of those local landmark establishments dating to 1947. The interior with bright red chairs and counter stools definitely brings back the old diner car feel. Canon G11, 1/400 sec @ f/5.0, ISO 400, exposed at -2/3.

You have such a good eye. I really never see these things when I am places, and you bring out these amazing images in the midst of the seemingly mundane. Well done!

Canon G15, 1/15 sec @ f/8.0, ISO 200, in macro mode.
