Every home should have one!, a photo from California, West

Photographer's Note

All along the Venice Beach Boardwalk there were market stalls, trying to sell us tourists everything from "your name on a grain of rice" to "5 pair of socks for $5" - via caps, t-shirts and necklaces. Forseeable and recognizable from almost every "Summer paradize" or "Summer festival" also in Sweden, so I went looking for any differences (it was a cold sea breeze blowing that day).

Eventually I found this little booth selling mistmakers together with all kinds of "stuff" in a mishmash. Lovely!

This is a cute scene, and I like your title - it goes so well with your note. I think you did good work in the post p. too, considering the bright sun and dark shadows. I wish the title "Mistmakers" was even easier to read. It's very neatly centered - not so "artisic", but nicely done.

A very interesting and amusing composition! I like the way you included in it the mist and the handwritten note. The prevailing cold colours, together with scarce light and the rising mist give a special mystical impression. I like it!

A great composition, Kaj, with a wonderful mixture of colours. I especially like the blue dish behind the sign. The dark background helps to highlight the steam and the touch of light on the foreground objects. Good note.
