The Jungle





An eclectic combination of middle eastern, Victorian and a Rain Forest Cafe. Yesterday's post took place in the basement of this restaurant called the Jungle. It was late at night after a photographic shoot in the near downtown area. I found myself outside looking in. I struck up a conversation with a gentleman just outside seated at a table. He later told me he was the owner of the cafe and invited me in to take pictures. It was then that I found the blue lit nook down in the basement hid from the noise and activity above. I am going back for dinner or coffee...there is something about this place that draws me in.

Looks like a great place for coffee and conversation. Dazzling as ever.

A city jungle... Interesting clash of themes I'd say between these jungle decorations (tigers and all) and the Old City pictures in the basement?

So much to look at! Interesting that the owner was sitting outside. He may have seen too much of it? There's a lot going on there.
These are great shots Dan!

Thanks BJ. It is quite a unique place with many nooks and crannies to get caught up in.

Dawn Treader...you are right! It tends to give very "busy" photos! Each room seems to be of a different decor.

Shabbygirl...Right! He was probably sitting outside to get his equilibrium back before wandering back inside!

Anna..things are well on this end other than being swamped with chores! Good to hear from you again.
