Subject: [Leica] The Last Big Boy Restaurant in Fort Wayne

Color would have been nice. I was shooting film and trying out the 
Voigtlander 28mm lens I had just bought, so it was B&W. I was going to go 
back and shoot in color with my digital camera but they took down the Big 
Boy statue right after I did the B&W version. All Big Boy restaurants have a 
fiberglass statue of "Big Boy" in front of them!

I still like the B&W version, but it would have been nice to see the bright 
colors on the statue.
