Hi, Tom,
GREAT light and color in this and the detail is wonderful. I like all the nice lines and angles and that bit of ocean you can see to the left. That is a really cool shot of Americana. Very well done! Thanks a bunch and kindest regards,
Shelly

Hello Tom,
Those were the good old days!
many thanks for sharing some thing to remember our youth that had gone by!
the word ICE COLD must be attracted to so many young fellows during a hot summer day!
best regards
Tony

Yes I remember it well, but I think it was a quarter here :) The people designing this sign sure knew what they were doing, they sure do grab you eye, even in this gallery! I love the colors in this picture. The wall behind, the table and contents beside, the ocean....all make a very lovely picture. Have a good day!

Hi Tom
Nice shot about old days. The colors, contrasts and textures are well presented. In Brazil, we didn't have it. Well done. Best regards, Consuelo

Hello Tom! Old drink but constantly "newly invented", generation after generation. I shared my first coke with my grandmother and it felt sensational, like newborn (and I gained nasty looks from my mother, probably thinking of my poor teeth). I never changed to diet coke, I go for the real stuff, ice cold, directly from the ice box down my mouth. I find your photo treatment really really good, it has an old look somehow. Have a wonderful day, I am almost on the way to Denver/Co., flying on Thursday morning at 7 via Munich. Take care, have a good pre-summer, New England style :)))))))))) Barbara.

hi Tom

The good old days, always nice to find old items that remind of the ways and lives of yester years when things were so simple and pleasant without complexity. Just the name of Coca-cola will coincide with so many generations.

TFS, bill

Hi Tom,
Very interesting detail giving a feeling of an outdoor museum. Glimpse of the sea connects this to maritime environment. Very nicely matching colours. I might frame the fridge more off-centre to the right.

things go better with coke, no matter what, no matter where!
that cooler should go to the local museum instead of being left there to rust..:-). the icebox reminds me of my childhood days.

Hi Tom,
Coca Cola has always been special to me...
It goes all the way back to my early years, in the '50s and '60s, when I was a little kid.
We didn't have a lot of money and a bottle of Coke was a luxury, no more no less. I can afford it now, but it still looks and feels like something special...
Lovely shot, buddy. Lovely and nostalgic.
Framing, textures and colors are superb. Thanks for sharing!
And... Freddie say wooof to Gunner!
Thanks for passing by my lighthouse shot, I greatly appreciate.
Have a good day, I'll be seeing ya soon.
Ciao,
Fulvio.
