Tam Shepherds, taken yesterday on a busy Glasgow on the last Saturday before Christmas.

To say this shops an institution in Glasgow would be an understatement. Its been there forever and a constant supply of whoopee cushions and stink bombs for ever Glaswegian Kid ever. Aladins cave of fun Smile

I've always wanted a photo of this place but as usualy cars, weather or something has stoped me getting the shot. Today I was lucky enough to get it the way I sort of imagined it, though I did have one car to the left stoping me getting a full on front shot :-( alas, next time.

Anyway, its even got some Christmas Decorations in keeping with the festive season. So as before on this Christmas Eve, wishing you all good health and the best of days to come.

Tommy

For me you've over-processed this shot a wee bit Tommy. I think the shop front has enough character to take a simpler approach post-processing wise. IMO of course Smile

This has come across amazing Tommy!!!...

Can I just say that I had to phsysically move Tommy from the middle of the road as he was frustrated people and cars were getting in the way of the shot lol!!

Loving this soo much, x

I like the treatment here - it suits the nature of the "Trick Shop". I suspect that a straight-on shot would not have been as good. Click.

Thanks peeps.

Thanks Mo, Tony, Shaz, John

Lisa - glad you like it

Dave - I always value your opinion, even if I dont agree with it Smile This time it was more the shop front paint, being very reflective. I will revisit this place and try again Smile I want to get more detail from the shop window next time Smile

Ohhh SANTA is a close now !!

WOO HOOOO

Later all.

Tommy
