After Hours

It may be a holiday, but there is still work to be done. 







I wandered around taking pictures while he got ready for business for the day after Christmas.

  4. These photos have an aura of timelessness about them...almost like they could have been taken in the 1940's as well as 2010. Love them!

  6. I should be getting supper right now, but I could easily sit right down and place an order. Are there any specials today? I'm not fussy, a hamburger would do! I agree love the black and white pics!

  8. Ahh -- the unseen work of the holidays. Many occupations can fit into this workoholic time -- UPS drivers, post people, snow removal crews etc. It might be festive for some but for others its hard work. Great shots -- like the angles -- barbara

  14. I like the black and white, as well. I often think of doing some of my pictures in black and white, then forget about it. Some pictures are just perfect for it, though.

    PS The wintry photo shown in my sidebar is the wonderful village of nearby Lavenham. It boats some of the best-kept medieval buildings in the country - worth a google!
