Big Tuna

It is the perfect time of day for photographing wonderful warm hues, but too early to visit the gritty, rustic Big Tuna Restaurant and Raw Bar. It is better to come back later in the evening, when it becomes a hoppin' kind of place.

    The warm light does great things with the wood and with the orange and brown on the signs. Nice composition as well, with the lead-in rails and the two "Big Tuna" signs echoing each other.

    Gorgeous image, with texture to die for, along with shades of the Wild West and gun-slingers, the Man With No Name, John Wayne - and not forgetting Wild Bill of course. Speaking of whom, I hope the Hickok family have a nice weekend in the Big Tuna when it starts hoppin'
