Picture of the Day – Window Dressing


When visiting small towns, I’ve developed the habit of walking around town, with camera in-hand, of course, looking at shop windows for interesting photo possibilities. Many stores still put interesting displays in their windows and you can get some very nice results.

Not only do you capture whatever is on display, but also some light reflections off of the window which can add to the mystique of the image. Of course, there are far more uninteresting displays than good ones, but if you are walking around town anyway, just keep your eyes open.

This particular image was from a music store in downtown Bisbee, AZ. I really got lucky in that town with great photographic possibilities. But I have found interesting windows in many other towns. Just look and you will too.
