I'll tell you what I like: the two signs on the cooler door, "slide to open" and "fresh fruit $3.25". Don't ask me why, I just do. Oh yeah, her eyes - actually both of their eyes. Canon Girl's looking at her friend, and friend looking down. Interesting juxtaposition between the two of them. Nice capture - too bad it wasn't b&w (I know, I say that too much, but really, all that colour just detracts from such pure scenes, IMHO). I like it, despite the lack of focus (perhaps because of? <VBG>) cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
