Cafe, Berkeley CA
Yashica T4, Fuji Reala 100
I just finished this long forgotten roll of film in my T4 P&S. This was taken at Cafe Cacao in Berkeley.

Yes, this is so Berkelyish. I like it. Reminds me of some typical cafe right by the campus.

Whoa, I missed this one - a beauty!
I really like the way you noticed the way the architecture of this cafe works with light - those diagonal skylights and counter-diagonal light/shadow patterns on the wall are terrific.
BTW, here http://therosenblog.blogspot.com/2004/06/it-pays-to-schlep-your-camera.html is another example that supports the theory that you and I were photo-twins seprated at birth. The scale is different, but the idea is similar.
Hey, another BTW - your image has terrific colors, but because of the strong patterns, it might also be an excellent B&W?...
Thanks Steve!
This was taken with my other favorite P&S, the Yashica T4 w/Carl Zeiss 35mm f2.8 Tessar. Its small size made it more comfortable to snap pictures of the folks in the cafe without disturbing them.
Isn't it amazing how we're constantly coming up with similar pictures? :)
I actually considered (and even tried) doing this as B&W, but in the end, I decided the colors were too good to eliminate because I "saw" the composition with colors when I took the picture.
