The only vacant shop on New Bond Street.
Don't stare at the screen for too long though otherwise you might end up signing a long lease with no break clause....
This is a B&W, square format version of my previous upload. Given my massive backlog of images I really do need to stop producing / uploading different versions of the same shot but in this instance I thought it was justified as they both have a different 'feel' to each other.
Whilst this version is much more 'graphic' and the composition probably 'tighter' (i.e, the 1/3 of the frame I've lost doesn't add anything with regards the images 'message') I do like the way subtle browns are interrupted by the blue 'One Way' sign. In the B&W version the significance of the sign is greatly downplayed so I guess it depends on whether the sign adds anything to the shot...... Whilst I'm not sure it adds to the 'message' some might consider the fact it's pointing in the opposite direction to the woman's direction creates a subconscious tension...... Anyway, I think that's quite enough thinking for a Sunday.....
