SIJ - Day 17
El Rubí 1934

Neighborhood watering hole in Caguas, Puerto Rico. Sign claims it has been there since 1934 and I believe it.
Antonio what at first seems a simple image reveals a lot more on looking longer. The fortress like exterior, the double shadows of the power lines, the Stop sign and glimpses of the street which is much more welcoming.
 
Great shot - I love the way the starburst from the street is mirrored by El Rubi's iconography!

Love the strong lines, the lighting and your excellent black and white tones, Antonio. Did you go in?

A new favorite for me!
 
Oh very nice work Antonio. Very simple composition it seems but with so much going on. Love the starburst and the lines and shadows. Although B+W (great processing by the way) the image somehow screams RED to me.
