Poor shot I'm afraid, but I haven't had time for anything better today.

This shop in New Oxford Street, London sells an amazing range of umbrellas of every type, style and colour imaginable. Luckily it's been sunny at today but perhaps they sell parasols too!

I love this shop...you've no idea how many times I've thought it'd make a good potd - doh! It's only 100 yards away from one of my favourite restaurants in London - The Italian Kitchen - yum!

You don't see a lot of umbrella stores in Southern California.

Est 1830 hmmm. They obviously knew the need was ongoing. I like your London drive by shots, gail.

That is one big store for umbrellas! I've only seen one small section for umbrellas where I live.

Nice shot Gail, and topical here in oxfordshire at the moment.

Might be nothing special for you but an original place of your town is always interesting for me. I wish I could travel all the time...

Interesting. Looks to be an old established shop from the date.

have they shut up shop for the summer?

Zak.. lol. but seriously, i can't imagine a need for such a large umbrella shop.. :O apparently not all umbrellas are the same eh? well, i now know where to direct Mary Poppins if she's ever in need of a replacement.
