Shot this one during the World's Longest Breakfast Table in Battle Creek this past Saturday.
Once a year, the city closes down main street, and a tables are lined up end to end all through down town (about a mile long), and Kellogg's and Post cereal companies buys the whole city breakfast. Event lasts about 4 hours. There are musicians up and down the street, as well as different cereal characters like Tony the Tiger, Sugar Bear, Snap, Cackle, and Pop (though this year, I only saw Snap)
This gentleman was once of the street musicians. His vest and accordion were a god awful orange that just didn't translate very well in the original photograph. But I figured everything looks better in Black & White, and everything B&W looks better with a tad of contrast. :D
