Shoppers

Harry & I went to the accountants this morning & afterwards called into Booths cafe for a coffee.
The cafe is upstairs so had a birds eye view of the shopping aisles down below.
Quite disappointed in this shot as although I put it on wide angle and the 16.9 image size I still only managed to get a couple of aisles in the frame.
Might have been better on my pancake lens but I don't use that nearly enough.

Three good things:
1. Hurricane Bertha seems to have gone North!
2. A free coffee with my Booths card.
3. I slept really well last night for a change.
Always interesting to people watch .... and all looks very tidy!

Nice pov - it is a change to see a supermarket from this angle. We have a sign in our local supermarket to say no cameras!

You have quite a few leading lines in the shot taking us up and down the aisles. It's a good view down. You can't win em all! Next time.

@jantan I am always in Booths so will try it next time...have to do it in secret as they are very wary of cameras....been questioned before about taking photos!

Really interesting photo taken from above - not a view we are used to for a supermarket.

Interesting shot. Booths is a great store. Use it when in Keswick!

I like the viewing point looks good to me. I will be interested to see what the pancake lens shot looks like.

Funny to see something we do every week from that angle.

Super fun POV!

Great pov, such an interesting and colourful shot. I like it. We've had Bertha today. Ready for her to move on now :)

Great shot Pat, Looks like a good time to shop... not many customers...

@julzmaioro it looks quiet Julz but very wide aisles & it was Monday morning!

Everything looks so neat and tidy - no fallen items or broken glass etc. Hope the coffee was good - it isn't here in general.

Well I can see four aisles - at least! At least you know if there's anything left at the back of the top shelves from up there! I could really do with a proper night's sleep....

A great way to spot which isle you need to go down to !! Every thing looks so clean and shipshape !
August 11th, 2014  
Well at least you had a good night sleep.

I really like the pov. Everything is very sharp making it a fabulous shot. Pity about the reflections - or is it in-store lighting?
August 12th, 2014  
This is a great shot in the supermarket

I think this is a terrific shot. It's a shame you couldn't get them to move their lights for you though.

I love the POV here. Your supermarkets have much wider aisles than ours.
August 12th, 2014  
@swilde yes too right Sue....never noticed them when I took the photo!
August 12th, 2014  
This is so cool. The company would be able to find people who lift things from up where you are!!
August 12th, 2014  
Great view; our local sainsbury's has an upstairs cafe never thought of doing this!
August 12th, 2014  
Nice sneaky shot of Booths! :)

I really like it - you can definitely tell there's some wide-angle action going on and the near symmetry is good!
