The holidays are tough. Especially if you aren't taking steroids like the baseball players do. Sometimes you just need to take a nap.

Short Hills Mall, New Jersey, Weekend after Thanksgiving.

Attention shoppers! It's Garden State Straight.

There is a lesson here for those landscapers among us. That is, tilt the shot. Thanks for the tip. I often struggle with "Daily Life." Great message too.

Hi Hugh,
Great shot and excellent note. Sharp pictures with nice natural colors.
Bravo amigo!!!

He rests waits while she shops. Very typical for us guys to be doing this right? Short hills mall, very nice stores in there for sure. You gotta have the money if you wanna hang there. So you just gave me an idea. Next time I go shopping with someone I'll bring my camera along to help pass the time.
I like that woman standing back there in the baby store waiting for customers to come rushing in, and the use of tilt here Hugh. I think your Garden State series is going to bring up a lot of memories of places I've been.

! Nowadays I feel like doing that about 1/2 an hour after being on a shopping spree:-) but there is no place where to do it:-)

Love this, the tilt makes it even more a natural shot, quite a luxurious place, very funny, lovely fine-tuned colors and great work on the light, a "chic" image.

Have a lovely weekend
TFS, Michèle
