Portage Avenue, Winnipeg, Mb.

I was walking along Portage Avenue in Winnipeg on Sunday morning the day after the Santa Claus Parade hoping for a leftover shot of the parade. Instead I happened upon these guitars sitting in a pawn shop window. I tried a straight shot and then one with an added flood effect in the comment section.

With flood effect... I preferred this version but others no so much.

This was part of a larger display of a number of bicycles sitting in a vacant storefront window.

The OP brings a smile to my face. I like the bicycle one too, the black
background brings added attention to the brightly painted bicycle parts
and guitars.

That's a colourful collection of guitars. My favourite is the bicycle parts.

The best art is sometimes just an arrangement, like those bicycle parts.

A little late, but I enjoyed your pictures Jan. I liked the OP best of all, although the cycle parts one is good too.

I like ex-aequo the first two - with and without flood. Than comes the bike and last the butterfly, only for the cut out composition - but I believe you did the best you could, in order to avoid other unwanted stuff.
