[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is a shot of a tobacco store in Bergen. I like the composition but I really regret I cannot make the picture any sharper. I tried in my photoshop, but without a good result.

I posted this picture anyway because it seems as if the time stood still here. The store looks old and the 2 men are having a chat, just like maybe there grandparents did before them.

Hpoe you like it and if ione of you can make some improvements... don't hesitate!!!

Geert.

Hello Geert.

Excellent picture, nice composition and colors.

Regards.
Jose Luis.

The situation is well captured, Geert!
Typical Bergen I might say, they are known as the biggest blabbermouths in all of Norway...
I'll throw in a quick workshop for you, trying to improve sharpness a tad...
Greeting,
Pablo -

I don't think any improvements are needed. The colors are good, the scene is as you describe it - timeless.And any sharper it would probably look glossy and ruin the atmosphere. No soft and smoky goes well with a tobacco shop.

Hi Geert, I quite like the softer focus. It fits in with the old look of your pic. Nice one.
