Payphone


It seems that every time I turn on the radio the song “Payphone” by Maroon 5 comes on. Today’s post will be of a payphone before they become a thing of the past, this one even had a phonebook attached to it; now that is a piece of history 🙂

    Nicely captured! Very earthy, but, as you said, these’ll soon be things of the past!
