Here is my entry to this week’s Monday Window – a photographic challenge hosted by photographer/blogger, Ludwig Keck.
This week, my photos feature more shop windows.
The first is a cute florists, cum grocers, cum wine shop. This was taken a few years ago on holiday in Cornwall and the shop is in a little sea-side village called St Agnes.

In contrast to the above attractive and colourful shop fascia, the photo below is a shop window on the outskirts of Oswestry town centre. It features a convenience store and the most uninspiring window display I think I have ever seen. The white sign in the window says, “Smiths sliced bread sold here”. We didn’t buy any Smith’s bread or any toilet rolls or car oil. I think they might have installed the burglar alarm in lockdown when they amassed their stockpile of toilet rolls.

Was the Oswestry picture taken when there was a shortage of toilet rolls, by any chance? 😉

I think you could be right. In early lockdown they were like gold. Hence the burglar alarm. 😅

I love the first one better… but both shopfronts look nice!

They are both neat. The second one isn’t that bad. I think I have seen less inspired displays, but I have no photos.
