An outtake from my shoot for the Diner challenge. I wasn't even going to enter this challenge, but when I saw this shot, I realized it would work just fine. Tried a new editing tool: posterize. Thought it added just the right amount of "memory".

Well I just voted about an hour ago so I didn't have a chance to comment on my favorites. Your photo was in my top 5. Congrats on being just shy of top ten.
THANK YOU for actually writing a memoir and then illustrating it with a photo. And it's a really nice photo with a great vintage feel, clearly connecting to the idea of an adult remembering childhood road trips. In fact, this is getting a 10 from me for both the memoir and the photo.
