 Hamburgers, Red and White Hots , Beef on Weck, She's been a local icon as long as I have been alive and I believe many years before then. Western New York has thousands of "greasy spoons" along her byways but none better than the "Dot" as it is commonly referred to around these parts.

I like this shot, the tree in the BG is distracting. I would have cropped the image to remove the most part of the tree.

An EXCELLENT find! It would have been awesome if you could have gotten an angle without the guide wires. Hey, are they attached to 'Powerlines'? You could go back and enter it for the upcoming 'Powerlines' challenge!

Great location, but the photo has too many distractions with the wires and such.
