coffee shop

Scene in a coffee shop in Limerick, Ireland. Comments and critiques most

welcome.

Nicely done.

I simply love the stripes on the wall, the light and shadows and even the bit of reflection on the floor.  Black and white was the perfect choice for this image.

Wonderful capture indeed!

Interesting image. The style you have used works well with this little coffee shop.

i like this very much... very good toning

Very interesting image!

i like very much this treatment, good work

I love the horizontal stripes of the man's shirt played against the vertical stripes of the wallpaper; I like this in b/w for that reason. Good eye for this one; well done. Looks like a place I would enjoy having coffee and chatting with friends. Thank you for sharing. :)

Many thanks to all of you for your comments. Trisha, you are absolutely right, the stripes on the wall and the man were part of what I had seen when looking for a subject for a photo...

How do you do this!?  This is so amazing Ferdinand! I'm so jealous of your post skills (or is this all one-click plug-ins?) Well, whether you slaved over this and your others for hours, doing layers upon layers and fine tuning them all... either way, you create beautifully realized imagery... in all your work!  AHhhhhhh! I just love it....! I feel like I could step thru and invisible barrier and be in your pictures. That's how much they pull me in! (I want to know your secret someday!)
