  1. Why did you include the grey strip at the top of the image?

    1. I did it for a very selfish reason:
      The photograph was taken at the Bob's Big Boy
      on Riverside Drive in Burbank
      and the "imperfection" is a reminder
      of an ancient 5AM jog including Bob's
      while a film crew was shooting a scene from HEAT.

      Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino were seated at a table
      while my footsteps appeared in the background.

      Naturally, they were edited out of the movie.

      JUST FOR THE RECORD:
      Bob's has a plaque in its restaurant
      to commemorate the moment
      but they placed it on a square table
      when the actual shoot involved
      an upholstered booth
