Shot at the Waffle House while eating breakfast with my daughter. I had my 300D on my trusty 6.5" tripod in fullview. Probably took 100 shots, some of which were pretty cool. This one struck me as the most poignant. This woman had just come off a night shift and was waiting patiently for her take-out breakfast; as could be expected, the place was short-staffed and backed up.

What a wondefully strange, marvellous image. I really wish the side of that bag wasn't so far over-exposed. Great sense of the ordinary, beautifully communicated in the absolutely 'normal' colour palette you've used. Everso expressive - very strong work. I hope others understand it, or at least give it the time.

thanks, ed!

Greatly underappreciated by most in my opinion.
Deserved a much higher score.

Unusual approach to this shot...which works well at emphasising the theme of the challenge for me.
