Big windows to show the mess. But the reflections are excellent! V

Sadly beautiful. V

Fantastic image of the dereliction, always a shame about empty shops. v

perfect picture using film. v

Fine graduated tones, reflections and excellent film processing. Sad to see this old store go away. V

Beautiful soft focus, but not soft enough to take away the stark, barren storefront. Watching small town shops disappear is a very sad trend. No more variety. No more creativity. Only millions of Kohls, Walmarts, Petsmarts and Home Depots... sigh...

How sad it looks. Once an art store maybe.
I too love the reflections you captured.
Mieke WA Minkjan27-Dec-2012 07:25
looks like a picture of German photographer Thomas Demand!
but there is one big difference yours is original and not created V

Online shopping is the death knell for these small shops, shame.

Great thinking here..and a desolate scene, even with the sun shining through the window! V.

What John said! V

Excellent photograph with superb composition. I like the way the building reflection interacts with the interior scene. Superb tones here too. V
Walter Otto Koenig27-Dec-2012 01:22
Fascinating details. The reflections add another dimension. "V"

That store is really derelict, well captured in those soft tones and reflections..V
Coleen Perilloux Landry27-Dec-2012 00:46
Awww, this photo shows the desolation.
Janice Dunn27-Dec-2012 00:41
