There were a few captures of this wonderful shop front, but this one caught my eye with the muted colour palette and inclusion of the shop name and location.

I'm not surprised that the store owner has a strict 'no photography' rule inside the shop!

Thank you for entering my contest Shop Window Displays and congratulations on a well-deserved place in my top 10.

Excellent composition and I particularly like the casualness of the man leaning against the shop doorway, wearing his fez and looking up the road. Maybe he is wondering where all the customers went to?!

Well done!

Meet the judge

Thank you for entering my contest Shop Window Displays and congratulations on a well-deserved place in my top 10. The composition with the centred entrance invites the viewer to walk into the shop. There are alread people browsing which adds to the dynamic of the shot.

I particularly like the aged effect of the muted colours and the old natural window frame.

Thank you for entering my contest Shop Window Displays and congratulations on a well-deserved place in my top 10.

I particularly like the sentiment in this image with the boy on the outside of the shop with the ice creams, too near yet too far, on the other side of the shop window. It could almost be a study for a painting.

Thank you for entering my contest Shop Window Displays and congratulations on a well-deserved place in my top 10.

I particularly like the colour palette in a warm and welcoming gold with Edison-style light bulbs accentuating the quirky items on display. The people inside , especially the smiling woman, also add to the dynamics of the shot.

I also appreciate the time taken to add details about the image.

Thank you for entering my contest Shop Window Displays and congratulations on a well-deserved place in my top 10.

This is an unusual perspective of a boutique shop within an arcade I particularly like the use of a fish eye lens with a very short aperture. Also the natural daylight through the curved roof windows.

Thank you for entering my contest Shop Window Displays and congratulations on a well-deserved place in my top 10.

This is an excellent subject for a shop window and a composition that you have taken the time to get looking just right. Well done!

Thank you for entering my contest Shop Window Displays and congratulations on a well-deserved place in my top ten.

I particularly like that you have included the shop details which gives the viewer context. I also love the bright colours of the items in the window that stand out against the frame of the grey shopfront.

I particularly like that you chose to submit this fabulous capture in monochrome. Also, the mirror effect with the reflections on the stone slabs outside the store.

There were a few other shots of this store, but this entry stood out to me.

I particularly like the composition with the shop name at the centre, tantalising the shoppers in, though the store is unfortunately closed. I also like the muted blue colour palette which gives a vintage look.
