Beautiful image. The bright morning light on the face of one man and the hand of the other and the reverse of the subdued light is just wonderful. It is as if you painted with light.
I can still hear you getting ecstatic about the light in that little roadside cafe. I think that it is a hand, not a shadow and I believe your image is of a woman while this is a man.
I remember this pool of warm morning light so well -- I love the way the shadowed hand. Is it an actual hand or is it the shadow of the hand? Is this person the same person I photographed at that table (http://www.pbase.com/image/91824358 ) or a different person?
