The Lunch Crowd

This is one that I feel very protective of, because it took a lot of patience and persistence to get it. After several visits when the diner was empty, I finally found the counter full with some good subjects. The next challenge was getting the shot in between the constant flow of market patrons who were passing in front of my chosen vantage point. That took a while, and I was counting on the lunch crowd's indulgence, hoping they would ignore me, dismissing me as some pesky tourist shutterbug from Iowa. Sorry, Iowa. I was laboring, spending a long time, but finally when the cook came into view, I found my moment. JKEL
