Shelves loaded with goodies in the Dunsandel Store which is also a cafe and post office, on the Main South Road close to Christchurch, New Zealand. Clicking on 'Photos' in the link gives some idea why the food there is so popular!
Taken with Panasonic FZ28. Colour photo converted with optikVerve Labs virtualPhotographer plugin in PSP.Comments most welcome.

That's the kind of store one could spend hours in browsing. And the food looks delicious. It figures Bob would wonder if the bottles are beer. Sigh!

Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

Perfectly suited to B&W Lyn - I looked at the links and their menu and I don't know what some of the things are but they sound good and the pictures look delicious.

The B/W here has made the store look like one from early 20th century. Nice capture!

Your coloration gives the scene the appeal of an old general store. Nice work, Lyn.

The stores with the old feel are the most popular these days LE. Makes me wonder why they closed so many in the first place.
Excellent edit and shot.

Lyn, I have to blame you for watering my mouth! LOL!!!

I've checked out the link and have clicked on 'Photos', with the above result.

Because of my almost empty stomage, your image has almost become a torture to me now (lol again). Thanks anyhow for this very fine B&W image.

Regards, Cornelius.
