Coney Island NY
December 12, 2015
Nothing says home like a hot dog. A Nathan’s hot dog. I swear, even though I’m a vegetarian I might take a bite of one if I was back there. I never made it to Coney Island when growing up but there was a Nathan’s on Long Beach Road that we would go to every once in awhile. A huge cavernous building which was never very crowded, as I remember.
Monochromia 
Never been to Coney Island OR had a Nathan’s hot dog! Something so nostalgic about both of them, even though I’ve never experienced them.
Such a great shot, Emilio

We were in a casino last night (not gambling- all the movie theaters here are in casinos) and we saw a fast food Nathan’s there. Couldn’t believe it. 🙂

Now I’m hungry for a hot dog 🙂 I knew this photo was yours before seeing the byline, Emilio, and I mean that as a compliment! I’ll definitely go have a look at the color image, but I’m thinking Lynn may be right. No color distractions, which makes all the “Nathans” front and center. Great shot!

Have one for me, Stacy. I have to look back but I don’t think I ever posted the color version of this shot. One of these days I might. But it came out very pastely. (Yeah, I know that’s not a word.) Pastel like!

The only thing that equals a Nathan’s dog is a Sabrett dog with Sabrett onions Emilio 🙂 This is a great photo and if I didn’t look at the date I would be very mad at you for not letting me know you were in town. Excellent work.

Thanks, Joe. I originally had it processed in color only but when Lynn saw me fooling around with the B & W she said it looked more like an older photo (except for the cars) and suited the image better. So who am I to argue with the wife?

I wish I had a grandmother, or a friends grandmother, like that. We are losing a verbal history nowadays.
