New York state of mind.....

Emerson, NJ

* A bottle of white, a bottle of red
Perhaps a bottle of rose instead
We'll get a table near the street
In our old familiar place
You and I - face to face*
Billy Joel

But no.....no wine for me
Instead....

* Some folks like to get away, take a holiday from the neighborhood
Hop a flight to Miami beach or Hollywood.
Im taking a greyhound on the Hudson river line-
Im in a New York state of mind.*

The bottles are unopened, and may remain so....I' don't need a drink to get in the mood for the holidays :)

whoa . . .seems to be VERY effected by the "holiday" motif

Very neat! I love the distortion effect and the various colors!

I'd settle for your photo and an olive. I'm easy. Great shot to set the mood!

Malcolm Smith11-Jul-2008 17:09
Hmm, hope that is the processing! Great idea.
Nancy Lobaugh11-Jul-2008 15:05
to paraphrase Tom Waits: the camera has been drinking??? cheers!
Guest 11-Jul-2008 12:54
Neat idea - I like the treatment... have a great time in NYC!
Mairéad11-Jul-2008 11:48
Looks like your camera's been doing the drinking. Cool entry with a good message.

I like the skew - (and New York)
Jason Anderson11-Jul-2008 01:34
Great effect, although as I recall there was a bit more blurriness...maybe just me ;o)
Jola Dziubinska11-Jul-2008 00:10
Nicely presented :)
Guest 10-Jul-2008 22:59
Ooh I know THAT feeling. A great idea and fun treatment!
Wolfgang Bluhm10-Jul-2008 21:33
Looks like some of those glasses had one too many :-)
Cindi Smith10-Jul-2008 20:49

I think I've had one too many...my sight is distorted :>)
J. Scott Coile10-Jul-2008 17:40
... me either... doesn't mean I'll get one in this year. I'm always in the mood!
Ann...10-Jul-2008 16:40
Excellent - with a twist!!
Guest 10-Jul-2008 16:25
Super creative!
Guest 10-Jul-2008 15:19
the distortion definitely puts an added twist on this photo. It's great!
Máire Uí Mhaicín10-Jul-2008 08:42
A well planned and amusing take on this - with a serious side to it also!
Dave Hein10-Jul-2008 07:40
There's a headache just looking for a place to happen...
Maaike Huizer10-Jul-2008 07:40
:):) Although you don't drink, you seem to have one too many!! Great idea.
Barbara Heide10-Jul-2008 07:17
lol...you did share with your lens, as far as I can see...
cheers!
Dan Chusid10-Jul-2008 06:49
They seem to be affecting my logic.
Knox O10-Jul-2008 06:36
To have whenever, ...like the 'effect'.
BleuEvanescence10-Jul-2008 05:05
Clever entry Mathilda wonderful with the distortion
and yes, i don't need to drink either to get
in any type of happy mood. And after what i lived,
i would have a good reason and still, drinking is not...
my cup of tea.
Herb 10-Jul-2008 05:02
