Modes of distraction

An invitation to lunch can be a fine distraction from the normal run of everyday routine.
Thoughts of the congenial company and the good food provide fuel for that pleasant distraction.
When that lunch is held in a newly renovated pub that has now become a fish restaurant, there are further distractions ahead. So many interesting and quirky features in this space meant that the time spent waiting for the fresh fish to be cooked was full of interesting distractions.
And once the delicious fish came, there was no need for any further distraction.

Love the point of view and the squid like tentacle lighting. V

And even a grand piano - how pleasant to be able to spend time there and then have a lovely meal.

What a charming lighting set, work of an artistic mind and really enhances the splendour of this place

That's certainly a most unusual and attractive light. A pub to restaurant....an interesting turn of events showing how
our habits are changing. It looks like a fine place to dine, hopefully it will do well.

Interesting light fitting, it's almost an architectural statement on it's own.

Oh what a lot of lights :) I like the way your composition includes the whole of the grand piano which I hope was being played while you ate your fish.
