Probably not worth posting, but it's the only picture I got in the last couple of weeks. Was sitting killing time in California, and took the picture out of boredom.

I thought I would see something Halloween related. Oh great. Another African American who happens to find their way in front of your lens.

Ron, what a good eye you have!
1st, the interplay of sunlight/shadow is wonderful. Its cooler, even, than we all think; I'll 'splain that in a minute.
2nd, the Lady's flip-flops echo the ragged bottom of the planter (without themselves being ragged) and her clothing echos the planter and its plants, only in an upside-down reversal.
The wilted flowers are upstaged by a vibrant being who is chillin'.
But your pic is captivating and you feel there is more to it than meets the eye, right? I think so too.
On the left of your pic is a seated woman, on the right is a a/c service sign.

On the opposite chair, a square of sunlight is bisected by the table and appears as an equal = sign. Squint your eyes...
You see a Lady, an = sign and an air conditioning ad. *The lady equals cool.* And so she does.
I would have totally engaged her- nice work, Ron!

Great shot Ron,it has a lot going on in it. I like the way the lighting is also.Your pictures always seem to tell a story,I can see this lady is probably waiting for her car to be serviced and wishes it was done.You shoot excellent wildlife shots,but I think your random people in the crowd shots are also really great.

Finally some folks are gettin it, and lookin at that composition in the pics. Probably they did all along. 50 years from now they'll still be a little more interesting. They're people pics, and there's always a potential for complaints there. I don't post too many people pics for fear that someone might say another messican wandered in front of my lens, but that's about all there is in the events I go to. 'Cept for me. Good pic, Ron, make a collection, and they'll be more important some day.
