Diner in the Dark - Black and White Wednesday # 78

Diner in the Dark

A local institution, The Colonial Diner is one of the last hold-outs for keeping the glow of neon going twenty-four hours a day.  With its concave stainless and enameled ceiling curved over vinyl, wine-colored upholstery and intricate tiling, it is a retro treat to stop in, even if only for a piece of pie and a cup of Joe.

This is my contribution to BWW #78, to be presented Wednesday, April 10, Indian time by Aparna of My Diverse Kitchen.  Aparna, a very talented photographer with that elusive taste for black and white culinary shots, is guest hosting for Cinzia of Cindystar.  Ci is the stylish, relatively new hostess of this event whom I carefully vetted to assume the role vacated by me some months ago after my long run as creator.   It truly delights me that there are enough of us who appreciate the unique beauty of culinary shots stripped of their colors.  Just don't ever call us geeks; "Say Cheese" instead. ; )

Black and White Wednesday - Gallery #76

Welcome to Black and White Wednesday #76.  Many thanks for your diverse and delightful culinary images.  Even though I no longer preside over this event, and my participation has been spotty recently, I always find presenting this gallery a highly pleasurable pastime, one which I encourage you to consider.  It helps, of course, to have a thing for black and white. ; )  Cinzia of Cindystar has all the details on how you can join in.  I thank Ci for the opportunity to keep my hat in the ring, however irregularly. 

Haalo of  Cook Almost Anything - haalo AT cookalmostanything DOT com is currently hosting #77 and will have her gallery online Wednesday, Melbourne, Australia time. 

I will be stopping by all of your blogs tomorrow very soon to formally ooh and aah over each of your photographs.  In the meantime, I hope you enjoy a little oohing and aahing yourselves.
