Marion from Nanaimo, BC, Canada
The lady on the right looks very dejected and sad. Another great shot for your book <grin>

@Marion: Thanks very much Marion, maybe the coffee hasn't hit the spot yet ;)
Ras from Plano, United States
I guess the lady on the right is not looking forward to this morning.
4 Jun 2008 5:10am
@Ras: Most likely she doesn't have to put on a face yet ;)
MontereyJohn from Salinas, California, United States
That is righteous! Really nice.
Have you ever check out Manu Guerzoni at San Francisco Daily Photo
He is simply a great street photographer (and a good friend).

Ian Bramham from Manchester, United Kingdom
Great shot Lorraine! - the clue is in the take-away coffee cup by the lady...if I know you and coffee Lorraine, I bet you recognise the brand on the cup and know which chain of shops it came from don't you!
If I were in that Lady's shoes I'd be cherishing that cup in both hands! - hey!...there's a thought - maybe she looks so dejected because it's empty :-(
4 Jun 2008 7:18am
@Ian Bramham: Thanks a lot Ian lol and Yes I concur, if my cup was empty, oooo people would put me on suicide watch ;)
@ManuelaR: Thanks a lot Manuela :)
Craig from Vacaville, California, United States

@KIJI: Thank you Kiji, I appreciate your visit :)
Andrew Gould from Sydney, Australia
Very good street shot -- just like the first one in this series. I like the balance in the composition and the quality of the black and white work.

Michael Skorulski from Cigel, Slovakia
An image of sadness and dejection captured very well, Lorraine.

vu@granby - Wolfgang from Granby, Québec, Canada
Beau travail Lorraine! Et Tim Horton est de la partie...
4 Jun 2008 12:32pm
@vu@granby - Wolfgang: Merci Wolfgang eh oui, c'est Tim Horton, tout le temps ;)
@Cheryl: Thanks a lot Cheryl ;)
JoeB from Brampton, Canada
Don't mean to go on about it, but did the guy on the right get kicked out of Tim Horton's. Perfect framing.
4 Jun 2008 1:08pm
@JoeB: Oh no nobody gets thrown out of our Tim Horton's, well except for once, where the guy stole money ;)
PS 'She' would have reasons to sue, if they treated HER like a man and threw HER out lol
MJ from Delaware, United States
great composition.... I can only imagine the stories that a great imagination could tell from this shot very well done
4 Jun 2008 1:54pm
@MJ: Thanks a lot MJ, I appreciate that :)
@laughingwolf: Yeah, really...;)
@Ana Lúcia: Hey Ana, she'll get in the groove in no time ;)
@António Pires: Thanks a lot Antonio, I love early mornings as long as there's tons of coffee ;)
@Daroru: lol, thanks :)
Michael Rawluk from Prince George, Canada
They do look like it is a struggle just being alive.
4 Jun 2008 3:18pm
@Michael Rawluk: Hey Michael, sometimes it is, I find caffeine gets me high quicker ;)
Hans from Heiligeneich, Austria
hallo lorraine! the letter come back to me, stupid postman! But tomorrow i will try again to send ;-)
4 Jun 2008 4:28pm
@Hans: You're sending me a letter? how neat! Stupid postman, but I don't thinking showing him a photo of an internet map works too well, they're fussy about that ;)
@alex centrella: Thanks so much Alex ;)
@Olivier Jules: Thanks very much Olivier :)
Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States
You were right -- this is definitely has a real "Monday, Monday" look. Makes you wonder what's gotten to them...
4 Jun 2008 6:49pm
@Viewfinder: Monday? lol thanks always Vf :)
Judy from Brooksville-Florida,, United States
You do find the most fascinating people along your streets, Lorraine. I don't know how you capture so many.
4 Jun 2008 7:12pm
@Judy: Well my life allows it, see I face the real world in the morning and take photos, of people and stuff. In the afternoon I lose myself in books and soap operas, and in the evening, books again. I can only handle so much reality ;) lol Thanks always Judy!
standley from brou-sur-chantereine, France
Tristesse et rejet! Tu as réussi à faire passer une émotion très forte dans cette photo. Bravo Lorraine!
4 Jun 2008 8:51pm
@standley: Quel beau commentaire, merci beaucoup Richard :)
@Helma: Thanks a lot Helma ;)
[terrorkitten] from Bath, United Kingdom
her look is priceless! Yea we all pretty much feel like that at times.
4 Jun 2008 10:10pm
@[terrorkitten]: Indeed, thank God for Coffee and Photography and on-line friends ;)
vu@granby - Gilles Martineau from Granby, Québec, Canada
Deux personnes près l'une de l'autre mais loin l'une de l'autre. Bravo d'avoir figé ces états d'âme!
4 Jun 2008 11:35pm
@vu@granby - Gilles Martineau: merci beaucoup Gilles, c'est un beau compliment :)
@saeed: lol You're absolutely right Saeed, more coffee is needed :)
@Mazi: Really? I like that, thanks Mazi :)
JoeB from Brampton, Canada
After I posted the comment I read Ian's referring to the "person" as she, too late for me. Now I'm wondering how I would keep score in a transexual bar.

@JoeB: No worries,you can't always tell :)
