Would you believe I used to own a corner shop - grocer/off licence and newsagents!! Yes, a few years ago now and this has really hit home!! Hard work but brilliant at the time, had to sell up (that's another story) and it's still going strong!!
So colourful! A very beautiful shot. What amazes me with these shops is that the storekeepers know what's what and where all the goods are located. They don't need any state of the art stock monitoring system, and rarely run out of stock, unlike Tesco!

It's like a colour explosion, usually lots of different colours & clutter are a big no no but must say this is one of the exceptions to the rule, this image works really well, i think it is because the blue on either side in the form of the shelves and then the freezer and counter, which are all in straight lines so give the image some kind of order amongst all the vibrant colours and chaos everywhere.
Great image and the owner looks a friendly bloke too!
Nice One, love all the colour, well captured!

It's great to see a corner shop like this!
Sadly too many od them have gone by the wayside due to the big chain stores.
Brilliant picture, and very colourful too!
