The power of paint by judithg

The power of paint

Number 2 in my 'Use of bicycle as window dressing' series. We have bought a new front door so I went to our local posh paint shop (The Paint & Paper Emporium) for some lovely blue-green paint. They always have a beautiful window and I've had my eye on this one for a while. There has been some discussion about cropping - I think maybe I should home in on the basket and front wheel but Nigel has persuaded me to keep some of the window writing.

No 1 in the series is

Love this shot! What a fun and creative window display. I'm siding with Nigel on this one...I love seeing the big picture here. Looks like a wonderful little paint shop, too.

So pretty in pink! You've pasted the share code in but I'm not sure it works in the description field (ie to paste in the actual picture itself). You can probably just keep the link in itself and get rid of all the extra characters.

Fabulous 'theme' window dressing. Barbie's bike looks perfect.

very nice shot. You could try a collage of different focuses and see how it looks.

@ellida I see quite a few of these painted Barbie bikes actually in use. If somebody ever pics 'bicycle' for the theme I'm right on it!

@wac @jessicapena Thanks - I think I may play with a collage as there are some funky close ups.

Thanks for all the lovely feedback - they are very talented - I wouldn't have thought of mixing those colours but it works beautifully.

you mean, you've actually set foot in there - I usually rubberneck on my way round Mitcham's Corner - lovely photo of a lovely display
