It sure catches the eye of the viewer. Good luck in the contest Tick.

Now we know what sort of shops you go looking for. I hope they had your size! Great observational image that's full of interest .

Looks like a fine establishment to me, TicK. No doubt it's run by a consortium of local ministers and rabbis. And it's good to know where I can buy a copy of "Fifty Shades of Gray". What piqued my interest were the five upstairs windows. The two windows on the left appear that the upstairs establishment could be a house of ill-repute or, for example, where one of the moderators might live. The next window looks like a student or author might have set up his study overlooking downtown Quincy. The guy in the next window is severely addicted to meth. The window on the far right intrigues me. After they catch a mass murderer. the neighbors invariably say, "He seemed like a nice fellow. A little on the quiet side." I suspect that a cannibalistic serial stalker lives his quiet life behind those curtains. I love that door with the three diagonal windows. Those doors always seem to belong to seedy bars and adult bookstores.

A fine shot of middle Americana.

Works for me, Cap'n! Faved...BOL in the contest...

Super cool shot and really catches ones eyes Ticker!!! Love the colors....happy you didn't put it in B&W :-) ... Fifty Shades was the most impressive and gross book series I've ever read!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!

Tick, this is a wonderful shot!!!

You better stay away from there, Tick. I've never seen that many headless, limbless bodies at one address. It's obvious where they got the paint.I hope you didn't get too close.
You could easily become infected with Enchantment of Masochistic Tendencies :-).
You're quite right though. B&W could never do it justice.

I love the color's and now we know what kind of places you like to hang out at. Lol! This is a good one, I like these old building with living quarters above. Tigs♥ =^..^=

Love the colors in this, Tick.
I like B&W but it would not have done this justice.
So which did you choose????
Great contest entry and good luck !
Jen-Nay

Wow, those pinks really pop & my fave color too. Such a bright & vivid store front ... one would surely not miss it. I wonder "how much the doggies in the window are?" ... yes, they caught my eye too.

A wonderful contest entry, Tick ... best of luck.

I'll dreaming about pink all night. :-)

I begs the question..'WHY' were you gazing into a shop like this?...

I can just see you strolling around the golf course all dressed in pink!...even the clubs and balls too!!!...'Woot'!

Good luck!..

So beautiful shot, lovely pink shades. Nice job, Tick.

WELL DONE NICE JOB

Eye Catcher Indeed Tick....Beat of Luck.

Not much grey in that apparel. Hard to imagine many bookshelves inside :)
A bright and different post - full of enchantment judging by some of the prior comments lol.The doggies in the window - I wonder how much they are.
Now that I look back the question has already been asked !
Best of luck in the contest Tick

Tick - You went shopping for your wife's birthday present - hopefully, she doesn't look at Caedes and spoil the surprise you have in store for her! Bold colors on display for sure! Thad

The only offensive thing I see in this photo is the quality of workmanship that went into the facade of the building. There has to be a few building code violations in the canopy alone. An interesting scene and capture. Best of luck in the contest.

Yes, this does not look appropriate for an agent, a secret agent, dear SOT, to search shop windows of this particular sort...
And pink of all colours, for God's sake!!!!!
[lol]
Only because I feel extremely human today you get away with a minor fine for violating the secret agents code.
SAM & SAAB [who does not get what is going on as he seems to be blind, colour blind that is LOL]

Love that pop of colour. Good Luck
