Photographer’s Note

Typical left-overs of communism in Poland, but quite atmospheric places sometimes. Milk Bars.

Swiatek: love your non-chalant composition here. Great streetside tableau. An agreeable image aesthetically too. best, c

Milk bar. My reference is the Stanley Kubrick film "A Clockwork Orange." I didn't realize there really was such a thing, so, for me, this is an educational photo (though I don't actually see any milk.) Between the chairs and the walls and the slight tilt you've used, there is a disorienting -- but intriguing -- wobbly geometry to this shot. Nice to look at. -Hugh

Good crisp shot, terrific colors, S. I love the row of guys like robots all pointed one way and the decisive moment - the cook disappearing in that doorway. Cool, dynamic compo,

Ach te bary mleczne.
Świetne zdjęcie. Uchwycony wspaniale nastrój tego niezwykłego przybytku - każdy solo i osobno, przy oddzielnym stoliku, nikt n anikogo ni epztrzy, bezosobowo. A nad tym wszystkim unosi sie duch pani w białym fartuchyu - kucharki czy innej czarodziejki od lepienia pierógów. Również ruskich. Znakomita kompozycja, że o kolorach nie wspomnę. Pozdrowienia T.

Nicely potrayed. Really like the compo here with only half of the bar is filled and the lady exiting the frame. Lovely light. Reminds me of the song by 'Myslovitz'. TFS. Bala
