    Lazy afternoon in the pub……I’m sure a few people will recognise it.

    I think the lighting is a bit over powering in this, taking from the subject who almost falls out of the rule of thirds, the people arent very obvious in the shot, it looks like a photo of a bar rather then a “quiet boozer”

    lifting the camera up to your face rather then having it sit on the table probably would of helped you compose and expose this one better. although it seems like a slow shuter, im sure you could of hand held it.

    Interesting shot.
    is it – the flowing tide on abbey street?

    I like it.
    I would probs remove the dude far left of the frame and have the single olde boy in the corner.
    I like the window reflections on the ground and the table reflections

    Thanks for the comments lads. Its scanned in from a print, the print has rich enough colours that don’t quite come across.

    I had an 8-second shutter speed, so I don’t think hand held would have worked in this instance. Maybe it would have at a quicker shutter speed, i don’t know, but I was facing a lot of sunlight. Plus since there was only the four people in the bar, I didn’t want to wake up any of my co-drinkers, it was easy to rest the camera on the table and press click.

    As to where it is, none of the above. JB7 would know where it is I’m sure.

    McDaids?

    Been a long time since I was in there though,
    so it’s a bit of a guess-
    And it’ll do my reputation no good if I’m right…

    Would agree about taking a cut off the bottom-
    maybe even a bit more than just the table top-

    8 seconds?
    did you stop down then?
    I might have focused just a bit closer, in that case-

    please let me be wrong…

    the single olde boy in the corner

    who is of course the “quiet boozer” referred to in the title.

    I thought the Quiet Boozer was referring to the pub being quiet.

    I like this image a lot.

    The only detraction for me is the edge of the table in the foreground.

    I think you’re right, mine was an alternative title. :)

    I meant Quiet Pub, but thought the alternative interpretation was quite cool :-)

    You are right, the table is a distraction, cropping it out leaves the bar stools on the right a bit too low in the image in my view…..anyways.

    Thanks for comments guys, much appreciated.
