Old Shops

Ditto for me. I like old shopfronts too but what ruins them for me is the reflections in the windows…so I usually just go for the door fronts…
Like the colours, blue and red, very strong. I looked at this a few times, I really like it. It’s simple but so much detail. The wood, the peeling paintwork, the gutters, the cables etc…even the weed in the left bottom corner.
Is there a book of old shop fronts like this? If not, I’d like to see some kind of compilation…

I love this type of stuff.
So much character in comparison with some of the modern
plastic shopfronts of today.Nice even non-shadow light, I think, adds to the image.
Nice. Well done.

Hi RN, agree with you about this subject – the second is great – perfect juxtaposition!
Thanks for the comments guys
Yeah the reflection on the 1st is a bit annoying. I suppose a polariser would have helped? But I don’t have one anyway :)
Lovely documentary subject, there are so many
old style shops lying dormant.The colours are really vivid, I dont mind the reflections
sometimes they can reflect a modern building from across
they way so post a nice contrast or give a larger view into
the surroundings.#2 is a bit strange which suits the topic, I like them both.
it is nice to Document these buildings im sure there have
been a lot lost and undocumented through the celtic tiger
era.Keep it up.
