Public BBQ for public use. But where are people to use them?

whats funny is that i have a grill that looks just like this outside my apt! I like what you have done with the color of this image.

@Rags: Very common. Thank you

Rebecca from Leicester, United Kingdom

Absolutely superb framing, lighting, composition and treatment. The stark detached feeling of this bbq comes across so clearly here. An OUTSTANDING strong statement on the tragic realities of modern life and modern ‘comforts’, dear Amir. It is yet another of your thoroughly BRILLIANT pieces. Many salutations to you once again.

@Rebecca: Thanks a lot once again for your kindness

Twelvebit from Victoria, United States

Reza's comment makes me wonder: are there no public BBQ's in Canada? I'm used to seeing them around here; now I'm trying to remember if I've seen them outside Texas. I think they had them in Oklahoma, but then, Oklahoma is really just a county up in North Texas. Good use of HDR.

@Twelvebit: I think what Reza was saying is that HDR was interesting. I am sure they have similar thing in Canada. Thanks a lot my friend

eddie from United States

I really like this type of documentary photo,well seen,made me chuckle abit....honestly though I think HDR does it a disservice...one of those photo tools I'm not fond of....
