Late morning, the old fashioned store window, a Coke delivery truck and lots of reflections on reflections.

Personally I dont really like it. Just my personal opinion, but nothing in the image I find particularly striking. Sorry, but I won't bulls#!t ya. ry

Don't worry about. "Everyone to their own taste" said the old lady as she kissed the cow. A phrase I picked up from Mom who would have been 102 last month.

Slinky just hates you because you drink Coke and you can shop at Goodys. But I think it may have been better if the truck reflection was clearer. No scratch that. The truck is perfectly clear. It's all of the other stuff in the window that messes things up. OK. So it alright. On second hand. Bsteph

Well... I think it lacks a focal point.. but good work on being observant and picking up the reflection. :-)

Maybe too many focal points? It certainly is an example of the fact that you have be very aware of all the elements that will end up captured in the image. Only after I was home on a 20"monitor was I fully aware of all the various parts.

What a cool looking store... bet they have a little bit of everything.

Yeah, too many focal points, but not a main one. But it works well as a confusing image :o)
