Flooers Ootside Mither's

[Brian Moore]

Don't know why I rendered that title in dialect. Perhaps it has something to do with the bonnie wee dram of The Glenlivet I am enjoying at the moment. Translation: "Flowers Outside Mother's."

Mother's is a bar on Pacific Coast Highway in Sunset Beach, California. I was walking with Sadie and I took this shot with my Vivitar PN2011 pinhole camera. Kodak Ultramax 800 film.

Makes a lovely scene Brian - kind of fisheye'ish

Thanks, Chris.

I'm just going to have to get me one of these cameras for my right eye!! I like the very delicate tones Brian and the way the awning / flag pulls the eye back down into the image to the car and the palms beyond. A very effective composition.

I'd happily send you mine if it would help, Pete! I overexposed this image (as I did every frame on the roll, having failed to appreciate the light gathering attributes of the 800 speed film even on an overcast day). Thanks for the comments, Pete.
