How much detail is enough? Too much?

At our Story Circle in February at the Safety Harbor Library your assignment for March was to write a 500 word piece about any topic showing detail from the eye of a camera. What does the camera see?

Focus on detail:
What are the people wearing?
Where are they - in a coffee shop, igloo, home or a hotel?
Colors, sounds, body language?

No need to use all of the above - use some to allow the reader to be in the story.
