Beautiful Photography

Have been looking at Robert Mapplethorpe's work. It is both beautiful and often shocking which I suppose is what art should be.

Here are some of the photographs I loved.

If anyone enjoys taking black and white photos get in touch I would love to be the model.

I feel that I am a restaurant!

Why do people choose to eat in a restaurant?

If a person establishes a restaurant, what need is that restaurant meeting? Is is food or is that too simple of an answer? Is it the experience or the convenience? Since the French Revolution, restaurants have been evolving and I think the question is interesting

For me it to eat something I don't make or have at home, as well as to have someone else do the cooking and cleaning up afterwards, basically achange of scenery helps.

- I have nothing ready at home, and we are out on the road, so it's convenient to eat at a restaurant.
that's about it for me. : )

Personally I would go for the food which I would not have access to otherwise.

If we eat out it is usually based on the food offered, the ambiance offered and the prices. The food is important because if you feel you could have easily prepared the same meal yourself it is not such an interesting experience.

One of the things that reduces the number of times we eat out (besides the cost)is that I am sometimes told my meals are better than those on offer.

In the past eating out was a good way of trying foods from different countries. Now the meals we eat in the UK are inspired by many different countries recipes.

Some meals or restaurants do earn a place in your memory, that is the ideal.

Breaking up the monotony of doing the same thing, without variation, every day (in other words, the need do what is "mentally/emotionally nurturing" (They offer the chance to have different types of foods, the chance to eat in a different environment, the chance to just sit and relax/socialize during a meal. Those are all "mentally healthy" things to do, as opposed to eating the same thing every day with/without the same people every day, in the same environment.)

Well it is always cool to see a place that has a "vibe" to it that fits your personality, or one aspect of the complex humans we all are.

Being single....I'm rather drawn to restaurants with a good vibe, good food, and pretty waitresses!!!!!!!!!!!

I also think music can play a part in all of that...but I'm more music oriented than some folks are
