I'm preparing submission to another gallery show and the brief they
offered was "Home Grown - Life in the USA". For reasons which
immediately reveal my twisted sensibilities, this photo popped into
my head:

I don't know what it is, but I find something very compelling about this image.
Maybe it's just the "slice o' life" bit, but it's also the
composition: the low camera angle (gotta love those waist-level
tlr's), the converging framelines of the glass display case, the
roofline, the reflections in the glass, the woman in the foreground so
absorbed in her decision-making process.
It's nice. I like it.
cheers,
frank
