Shadows

In addition to the comments about the shadows and the impact of black and white tones, I really like touches of light on the key and the handle. This has a classic and timeless feel.

Lovely composition. I love the reflections and the contrast of the soft clouds with the harder surfaces of the buildings.

I was a happy carnivore until my husband suffered a heart attack and quadruple bypass 5 years ago. The cardiologist was livid and said it was totally preventable, and blamed our diet. He put my husband (and me by default) on the uber vegan Essylstein eating plan - no meat, no dairy, no eggs, no added oils, no coconuts.... if it has a face or a mother, he can't eat it. It was not an easy transition, but his health improved dramatically, and now, after five years, I do not miss rib-eyes so much. I'm not saying that it is appropriate for everyone, and I certainly don't advocate that anyone change their preferences, unless their health demands it. I still miss real cheese...

That said, I agree with Bill that our culture has totally sanitized the reality of consumption of meat. It doesn't just grow inside a foam tray with plastic covering. My kids were all in 4-H and raised various animals for market. They have all grown up being well aware of where meat comes from and what sacrifices need to occur to produce it.
