What a charming little shop this is Annie. Well spotted and captured. You'll have to enter it now and see what's in there. Nice focus and detail. The colours look really good and the lighting is perfect for this shady little lane.

At first glance at this photograph I thought "charming", just as your notes described.

I love what you did to it. The water color look makes it stand out yet very much keeps the old world look. The features within the image add interest and splashes of different color here and there, such as the yellow pot in the middle, right.

Your perspective is excellent, a little to the side, giving a good view of the shop but also a bit of the sidewalk and yellow building across from it.

Technically this is excellent, I have no suggestions. Your photograph made me want to visit this place and see what the shop has to offer.

Very nicely done.

Very good composition to show the surrounding area. It does look like a very interesting shop. I do not think I could get my wife to pass by without going in. Very nice color!

This is lovely, just the sort of shop I would definately make a beeline for and probably spend quite some time in. Great colour, depth, focus and light. Thanks for sharing Sandie :)

A charming shot Annie. Is this Greece - I assume it is. Good angle and lots of interest. I like all the detail in front of the shop. Nice gentle colours and lighting subdued but good. I'd like to know how you managed to stop your water colour filter making the image too dark? Also what colour was the wall to the left? A good image - enjoyed!

    The wall was white. I added higher exposure after using the filter. Then it ended with the same light conditions as the original. It is Greece. Thank you for a lovely review.
