So many wonderful photos. I was also fascinated by the Mayberry Diner shot......boy oh boy, is that place clean and shiny!

Congratulations, everyone who made it to the finals, because it was so hard to choose.

I had so much fun taking photos that night. The waitress even changed into the shirt from her new 50s looking uniform for me to take a photo of her. I wanted a good nighttime, full shot of the outside of the diner, but the neon on the right side had a short, so I'll have to go back soon for that.

unless it comes to cooking and engineering pursuits, but that was beautiful! I love the way you captured the feel of the era and the light. It was lovely.

both of your entries are stunners and worthy of the win for sure. I'm proud to be in your company and surprised at my placement in the lineup of beautiful pieces of work.
Now on to the "Spring" seasonal, and I look forward to what June brings forth.

These along with CTYankee's Friday Challenges are some of my favorite DU things .

They were all great, and I liked the frog, but I also loved the May Magnolia
