Enter your best shots of locally owned restaurants and mom and pop shops in your corner of the world. Try to avoid commercial photography and take a creative approach on the theme. All well known chains (McDonalds, Walmart, etc.) will be off theme. Your store cannot be part of any chain. Any type of store is allowed. Good luck!
jeaniblog: What's a 'mom & pop' shop called in the UK? ( 5 years and 3012 days ago )

friiskiwi: are stalls and markets allowed? ( 5 years and 3012 days ago )
Contest Moderator: Markets are not allowed, stalls are as long they are permanently based on the same location.
This means: someone selling food on the side of the street using a temporary (and/or move-able) set up is off theme, someone selling food from a permanent building type structure is on theme ( 5 years and 3011 days ago )
rbsgrl: Is this limited to shops and restaurants or any locally owned business that meets the mods comment just above this one? ( 5 years and 3011 days ago )
MnMCarta: LOL I thought you meant "stall" as in an outhouse. ( 5 years and 3011 days ago )
Contest Moderator: @rbsgrl: in the description it is mentioned "any type of store is allowed" ( 5 years and 3010 days ago )
rbsgrl: Sorry, didnt catch that part. Thanks ( 5 years and 3010 days ago )

Howdie stranger! If you want to participate in this contest, just:
This is the kind of bookstore that one could enjoy browsing in for hours, as well as feel a sense of adventure in avoiding knocking everything down with a wrong move...lol! A bit too yellow from the incandescent light, but a nice photo all the same.
I'd love to sit there for a couple of hours. Pity no HiRes, otherwise I could read the titles (though I see some Mickey Mouse stuff hanging, always interesting). Good luck!
Love the storefront, great image!
Good job at not capturing your own reflection in the window, a key point often not thought about.
No doubt I'd enter that shop, looking at the window (might have a problem with my French ). Good luck!
wonderful photo, love the HDR, nicely done. Good Luck
