    I took this shot in the evening of a wonderful shop of oriental treasures (which is now closed) in Micanopy. I liked the red lights in the shop and used Topaz Dark Night as my one filter to give it a sense of mystery and intrigue.

    There are quite a few treasures inside! Too bad it went out of business. Good choice of filter, it has a nice ambiance.

    Micanopy has some pretty wild looking buildings, I am going to have to drive through some time. Interesting window displays and lighting....make for an interesting composition. Nice work.

    I like those red lights inside too, they do add a nice sense of depth and mystery to the image. I love how the old building doesn't have a straight line to its name. It has a lot of character though...

    Hi Cheryl, Beautiful composition... i like the implied rustic look of the exterior with antique shop. The color and your processing takes it over the top. Fantastic work!

    Something mysterious about red doors Cheryl. I like your processing.
