Blossom Cafe Entrance
Neon swooshes on the ceiling and a low-key interior make this entrance hall interesting. This is the famous Blossom Café in downtown Charleston, South Carolina. Canon T-70, available light This picture appeared (in b&w) in my 2002 photo-illustrated book, Coffee Experience, on the coffeehouses of downtown Charleston.

Great image Jay. I love the lighting in this – how the eyes are led from the darkened foreground and along the lights to the background seating.

Thank you! I wish I could have preserved a little more detail in the blitzed-out windows and door at the far end, but the brightness has its appeal, too. -J:
