Tapas Bar by maggiemae

Tapas Bar

In Sydney and in the back streets of the CBD, there is this little tapas bar with strip lighting under the counter! Quite vibrant! We chose a red wine and the tapas were, sweetbreads with rocket and a spicy dressing, some chicken meat rolled into balls and smothered with a fresh tomato sauce. I thought tapas were small tasty plates but these were big enough for a complete meal!

I have just noticed the hooks under the counter - I wonder what they were for?
nice perspective

Sounds like a great find -- love tapas, as long as they're not squid.

such a striking image - very nicely done! those hooks look a little on the small side, but here i've seen hooks under the counter like that that are a little bigger and i think they are meant for hanging your handbag off of...

Love how the lights lead your eyes the whole length of the bar! I also like the reflection in the seats. Your focus is so clear and brilliant!

@carolinedreams Thanks Caroline - think you must be right! There were no handbags there at the time.

I think this is fabulous. Great for shooting from the hip as well. Striking colours. As for the hooks.... costs, jackets, bags perhaps....or maybe that's where they hook their Christmas lights around the counter at Christmas time. :)

I love this! I thought it was moving traffic when I saw it small. Great idea and PoV!
