This is a great shot. Fits both "everyday" and "Wabi-Sabi". Nice to see a reminder that not everyone does Christmas.

Everyone in black, evenly spaced out, with excellent sharpness and color....you have definitely found beauty in an everyday occurrence.

Although I have a great respect and admoration for what is seen here, it has been photographed sooooo much already. Nothing unique.

Very stark image, I bet this would be great in B&W too. I really wish those chairs weren't there.

Great juxtaposition of old/new living/static - nice muted tones. 8
