Candid shot of one of the patrons at one of my favorite food joints, they make the best Chicken Ceasar salad! They also have a great selection of beer:) I was standing across the boulevard, a pretty wide one with 4 lanes. Focal length about 52mm. I had to close the aperture a bit to 6.3 to get the right exposure since the shutter was 1.
POST PROCESS: Basic stuff, had to remove some yellows, played with Curves and Levels, the photo was cropped a bit.

Smokers. Why do they always stand right at the door? (I speak as a reformed smoker of course)
Quick story: One of Australia's leading businessmen was showing a very distinguished European counterpart around Sydney's central business district. The visitor remarked they he was surprised at the number of prostitutes brazenly touting for business around the front of respectable office buildings in broad daylight. Our guy had to explain that they were all actually secretaries and other office staff sneaking outside for a smoke.
Your photograph is excellent. There's a very strange connection between the smoker and the wee person above the door. Maybe it's that they are about the same size., and dressed the same. Whatever, I like it. 7.
