While keeping an eye peeled for a good shot for the abandoned category this week, I was amazed to find the Abandoned Luncheonette! It's not, tho. Abandoned. Just closed during the week, but doing a lively business on Saturdays apparently and located in a very political neighborhood.....if you can believe the signs which are all over this little street next to the railroad tracks.
#43/52, Abandoned, 52 weeks in 2020

Some months ago I saw a documentary about Fred Herzog and at one point they show him in close up shooting with a Canon WP-1 camera. It literally appears as though a kids toy camera.
I strive to get that authentic mid-century analog look, but the cost of a Leica is prohibitive. So why not buy a $100 camera as was used by one of the masters of photography?
Hildebrandt’s is a classic Long Island luncheonette/ice cream shop which has been in business since 1927 but is struggling to survive due to a recent rent increase.

We are continuing our weekly highlight of the many fabulous storefronts which we have photographed over the years which have privilege signs. Tony’s Luncheonette located on New Utrecht Avenue in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn had a great Coca-Cola privilege sign with green porcelain enamel lettering. When we photographed Tony’s in 2005 for our book, “Store Front: The Disappearing Face of New York” we also interviewed the owner, Anthonio Lombardo, who told us that he had purchased the coffee shop in 1972 and that the interior including its circular wrap-around lunch counter was original and was installed in the 1950s. Sadly, this old-school gem closed in 2013 and we are not sure what happened to the gorgeous signage.

And from the first time that I saw you
Had I known you better then
I would've said those three old words

I didn't appreciate the moment at the time, it all seemed far too chaotic and I ended up wandering around aimlessly wishing I had made a plan. But it's funny how you can accept something later on simply through the experience and remembering how much you enjoyed your time. The same goes for this image.
Thank you for abandoning your luncheonette :)

Parthenios Luncheonette
132 N Church St,
Rockford, IL
It seems that when the Parthenios took over this former drugstore
150
for every greasy spoon
you slurped red-bean chili,
biscuts & gravy and chicken
fried steak, for every diner,
café and dive along Route 66
and Ozarks backroads, those
out-of-the-way, vanished
mom & pops with the hound
on the porch and the car up
on blocks, those juke joints,
luncheonettes and chophouses:
Red’s Giant Hamburg, Casper’s
and Aunt Martha’s, Red Onion,
Dowd’s Catfish and BBQ, deep
fried, slab of ribs, burnt ends,
and give some love to Whisler’s
Drive Up, Joe’s Hot Dogs, Cookin’
From Scratch, and Slice of Pie
in Rolla, Ted Drewes frozen treats,
Maid-Rite, Blue Owl homemade,
Billy Gail’s, Dairyland with Nat King Cole
on the jukebox crooning “Get Your Kicks,”
and where are Todd Stiles and Buz Murdock
in their sleek Chevy Corvette and
where are those hand-spun shakes
and fluffy pancakes of yesteryear and
if you remember the song, now’s
the time to sing along
Jimmy's Lunch, 84 Congress Street, Troy, New York. An old school luncheonette, founded in 1974. Jimmy passed away in 1993, and the place is now owned and operated by Anastasia "Tess" Londis.
A beach area in Phuket that hasn't yet become a main tourist beach which is why you can see pieces of plastic waste lying around.
Now you would think it to be the other way around but I guess the hotels that have direct access to a beach, regardless of whether it is public or private, do at least make an effort to keep them clean.
Obviously, most of the rubbish lands on the beach via the incoming tide although having said that I would think that it is also introduced via a few other beaches too, notably Saphin Hin park which is dreadful following any weekend with groups of people leaving their entire take away plastic items exactly where they had been sitting! It doesn't get any better with the canal running alongside the park from old Phuket town also depositing more plastic rubbish into the same bay area.
So, when I first set up to capture this scene I began by picking up the larger items of plastic waste that would fall within the frame with the intention of cleaning up digitally later on should any smaller items still end up on the final image. But then I slowly came round to the idea that maybe I shouldn't be cleaning up the rubbish digitally at all with this portraying a desire for my own perfection rather than the reality we all share. I wonder how things would be if the finest landscape photographers all included the plastic trash in their work even for one day of the year?
Jokes aside, I love this view regardless and because of that I think I would rather pick up all the rubbish myself or just leave it in the image if I didn't see it to begin with. I like to remind myself that if someone threw rubbish into my garden would I only look at it and complain about the person who threw it there? It's going to become a lot worse if we don't trash the idea of it being someone else's fault and therefore not our responsibility.
Thank you for not buying individually plastic wrapped bananas from 711 and Family Mart.. go figure! :)

(What a great album that was by the way!!)
Oh, my apologies if the alignment of the boat and island plus the small gap in between irritates you, I couldn't get enough elevation whilst stood on someone's garden wall. I will take a step ladder with me next time!
Closter, New Jersey.
We often went out for an early drive on a Sunday. Quiet roads and such. We've stopped on the main road, everything is closed for the day. Seems like the Red Maple is still in business in 2023.

more of a feast than I usually put out--- but we had weeks of snow covered ground ( and a pantry that needed clearing out)
The Lexington Candy Shop is a historic luncheonette located on the Upper East Side of Manhattan in New York City. It's known for its old-fashioned charm, classic American fare, and being one of the oldest family-owned establishments of its kind in the city. The shop, which opened in 1925, has retained much of its original decor and atmosphere, transporting visitors back to a bygone era.
