velvet

We are pleased to see a rebirth of our favorite local coffee shop in a corner of Old Town Albuquerque.


The new owner is Greg Smith.  His enthusiasm for the place seems a good omen.


The pastry also provides some positive reinforcement.


Pull up a stool and I'll buy you a cup of coffee.


The last shot below is from my Contessa 35.  The rest were all from my Pentax Spotmatic with the 24mm Super Takumar.

Looks like an inviting, comfortable kind of place to grab a great cup of coffee. Nice shots too!

We're hoping for the success of the new shop. It is very nice to have a good neighborhood coffee shop close to our park where many people go throughout the day to walk themselves and their dogs. The tourists are going to be in short supply for the next few months, so it will be important to make sure the needs of the locals are being taken into account.

I love little local places like this and sorely wish my neighborhood had some.

Drop in any time and I'll buy you a cup. We're just a short detour off Route 66.

One day I will finish driving 66. When I do I will look you up.

Nice photo report, and it looks like a very cozy little place to take a cup of. Your color processing is doing very well. The ocres in Fuji 400 are excellent. All the best to Mr. Greg.
