Diners have been a great American institution (particularly in the North East) but truck stops are all over the entire continent and are almost like small villages in some cases. If you live in a desolate rural area and need interesting photos, guaranteed you will find them at the truck stop on the Interstate. Some of the most interesting characters you will ever meet are truck drivers, over the years I have met several PHD's who gave up all those years of education for the romance of the open road, including my own father who gave up a successful career as a CPA because he heard the call of the road. I took this main PAW picture last week at a Pennsylvania truck stop while driving to Ted's workshop in Maine. On the alternate, yes I know the people are out of focus, instead my camera was focused on the ketchup bottle which you will find on every diner and truck stop counter in the world: http://www.streetphoto.net/paw44.html To see the complete PAW: http://www.streetphoto.net/ All comments are welcome. sl - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
