 Food That Pleases Since 1929

The Majestic Diner is a local landmark on Ponce at Highland. Most people only see it at 3am after the Righteous Room closes or they've had their fill of the Clermont Lounge. I took this shot at around 6pm after grocery shopping at the Publix next door, so there's more traffic then there really should be.

I really should have done a better job with the settings in the camera, but I was in a hurry and didn't really want to be hanging around that corner with $1800 worth of camera/lens for very long. Handheld, leaning against a telephone pole.

Not much post here:

Nice. I would really like to see this one exposed for a couple more seconds. The headlie trails need to continue on. Funny, but I was considering this spot for my neon entry. I don't think I hve ever been in there sober.
