I like it. I couldn't tell what I was looking at initially, but once I
knew what I was looking at I found it appealing.

Thanks Frank, I'm glad you liked it <sorta>. I know, I know, its a
bit cliche, but the scene was soooooo nice, I had to snap. And the
window had such lovely watercolor decorations <vbg> that the kitschy
part of me said "SNAP". But, you're right, as usual, the lady in the
background are what makes it.

I'm not sure what to think of it. It ~is~ kind of cool, I'll grant
you that.
Something inside me (the "serious photographer", as if that means
anything <g>) says, "no, that's too gimmicky", but the populist lover
of all things kitschy says, "hey, it's pretty, what's not to like?"
I feel like those cartoon characters, whose conscience is shown as a
little devil on one shoulder saying, "do it, you'll get away with it!"
and the little angel on the other, saying, "you know stealing is
wrong."
You actually caught that young lady on the patio with her coffee
really well. The shot, cropped relatively tightly on her, would work
in and of itself.
But, yeah, it's a cool shot as is. Nice and colourful, well framed.
I recently read an old quote that applies: "I used to be indecisive,
but now I'm not so sure."
Okay, I like it. Good shot!!
cheers,
