This is the way I see seats and other objects in a row. I have a bump on my forehead from the first blurry one to prove it. Need bifocals. -tv

Very nice perspective looking back thru the tables.

Perfect shot for the topic, well done B.

thanks all. it was a dreary, drizzly a.m. when I shot this. A couple weeks ago I tried a similar noon-time shot for challenge 142, the tables were better lit and all had salt&pepper and vinegar bottles on the tables (a fish&chip place) Anyhow I wasn't satisfied with the result, and I went back and shot this.
CJ - yes this lens is always in my bag because of the compact size especially when I travel, that's the main reason I bought it.

Very nice patterns made by the tables and chairs - good one b.c.! I often forget what a nice shallow DOF I can get with my 70-300mm zoom when used like this. Do you use this as your carry-around lens? CJCJ

Nice perspective. I like the bit of rain on this seemingly gloom day, the B&W works well with that. Also repeated highlights & shadows along with the hole in the tables add needed interest.

Perfect for this challenge and very well seen. The second table being hte first one in focus was a good choice. -COAmature
