    Jim, I love these. I especially like the third one down, where the lone man seems to hover despite all the frenzy going on. The “stalactites” coming down from the top, and the parallel lines on the right really add to the composition. The marquee in the last image is also striking. Charlie

      Thanks, Charlie. The one with the Maitre d’Hotel and his hostess in front of the restaurant is also Betty’s favorite so far.
