Wonderful catch. Super light. Not so many places you can buy nails anymore!

Very good...
Guest 18-Nov-2005 07:41
cool, looked like the store is really packed. Love all those signs

The sign above the door could cause that dude all sorts of problems

Beautifully composed shot of this small town shop.

My kind of store Karen. Nice shot.

Terrific catch. Shoot these while you can - they won't be around much longer in our rapidly changing world.

I also love these types of places......unfortunately, they are going the way of the dinosaur....so sad. Thanks for the memories.........

Who needs shopping on line when you have a place like this? Nice job of balancing the various sources of illumination.
Guest 16-Nov-2005 11:03
If you don't see it ask! Very nice shot.........

You don't see many of these independents anymore. Neat store and photo. And great for old houses.

Inviting doorway. I don't ever remember seeing a sign for nails for sale. Hardware, tools yes, but nails? Like the red Coke cooler.

Excellent shot! Love the old coca cola case...

I love this type of stores!

You have great archives to draw from. Nice slice of Americana.
Robin Reid16-Nov-2005 05:43
Do they sell camera equipment too? ;-) Excellent shot.

Ah Alley's -- such fond memories.

At a glance my attention was caught by the signs hanging on the walls, but staring closer my attention moved into the door frame that leads to an open door to have a peek inside. Very good composition Karen!
Gayle P. Clement16-Nov-2005 04:11
I love the little signs along the side of the door.
Coleen Perilloux Landry16-Nov-2005 03:48
I love it. the reflections in the door are special.
virginiacoastline16-Nov-2005 03:26
I want a place like THAT in my neighborhood =)
joshishots16-Nov-2005 03:18
A great shot - really like peeking through the door - and that old Coke box/cooler? Know what you mean about getting out there with the camera, that's a goal of mine for the day as well...so busy going through my India shots haven't touched the camera all week.
Elaine (etfitz)16-Nov-2005 03:17
Love places like this! Wonderful to have around!
Roe..16-Nov-2005 03:10
I want to see what's inside..looks like good stuff
Sheila16-Nov-2005 02:50
Everybody wants that old coke machine.
What an interesting shot. I'd love to look around in there .
Peter Hollinger16-Nov-2005 02:39
Looks like a fun place to shop, Karen.
Pic Chick16-Nov-2005 02:38
