    I think Elliot Erwitt would be proud. Particularly if you used the Leica.

    Just noticed the door slightly open, like the pooch is guarding it, daring one to enter.

    Good shot!

    Nice one Tuna! I think my favorite part about this picture is the strong shadows of the lettering/scrollwork on the windows and your composition over all. Another superlative street scene capture.

    Nicely done, Love the whole shot especially the poodle, the little details you can see inside, excellent composition and love the angles.

    One minor thing, you forgot to move the cigarette buts of the pavement first :-) Just kidding

    As usual, tuna, another fantastic image. The composition is great with the lil pooch looking up. The framing of the shot, the cig butts in the sidewalk all give it that old school b/w feel.

    Hello Tuna
    Have to say Tuna that this is the first of your submissions that does nothing for me. Nicely captured and nice composition no doubt, but I feel it is crying out for some added interest especially in the form of some human activity behind the glass.
