Good one Alfred. Like the scene and the mood. Need a little red wine in the glass. I gotta get a sign. Dave

Hi Al:

You captured the moment beautifully with the glass of wine perfectly exposed.

Well done.

G10 a beautiful camera with a later processor than the 40D. Have been looking for a small camera for Gina with a hard to find viewfinder on that size. Now, if it had a 10X or 12X optical it would be perfect. Hiking up the higher trails of Madera Canyon requires a smaller camera for her. The older Olympus "Z" camera's were perfect.

Thanks for sharing your beautiful moment.

Hi Alfred,
You should consider calling this "Don't Drink and Drive" a very big sign of the times.
If you look through the glass everything is distorted. In addition if you let you eyes follow the lines left by the car lights, from left to right, they stop at the wine bottle. And if that wasn't enough, the word "walk" is in the background. Did you plan it all or is some of it serendipity?

I am really enjoying the glass in the center of the pictures. You're not following the rule of thirds here, and It works.

I hope you had a wonderful meal.
Take care,
Clive
