This is the cook at a lobster shack in Rockport, Massachusetts. Since we stopped in mid-afternoon, I caught him during a rare lull in business.

Terrific POV, comp, colors and details in an excellent portrait!! #1464463Nikki McDonald May 22, 2012
Thanks, Dave. And here's a stray thread comment from Chris:Christopher J. Budny
Love the perspective on this, at his feet... I hope you went in for some seafood later!
Actually, we had had the seafood and were on the way out when I took this, Chris. Yeah, funny perspective but I like it a lot, too :)

Nice capture - looks like fun and it makes me hungry.I see some very colorful bumper hanging along the far side of the stairs... go back and shoot those some day, too!
We vacationed once in Rockport - and found it to be a really interesting place - especially for Midwestern folk. #10146105

Great shot, Nikki! I love the length of his leg reaching out to you! What lens did you use, if you don't mind me asking? (I have a sony too). #10148019Nikki McDonald May 24, 2012
