Alfred Berg is Horten's last corner shop. A specialist in teas and coffees since 1899, the present owner has now decided to close down. (This is what they call progress!?)

This was intended for last week's competition, but I realised too late that size limits were exceeded. C&C welcome.

I love it. It indeed gives you a feeling of those good old days.
I think it would look good also, when converted to mono.
Great picture.

Terry did submit it but it was deleted for being oversized

Sorry, Lilly, I didn't realise the oversize until it was too late. I am out travelling at the moment, will try a mono conversion when I get home.
Best regards

Back home after a trip to Denmark.
Here is a mono version of the corner shop. I'm ambivalent to the result, somehow I think the colour version works best. What say?

I like it in color best. I think it brings out the best part of the picture...those beautiful doors.
