Scary little places in dead suburbs on cold nights! You've got the syntax right on this one - dialect too!

Very interesting and somewhat disturbing shot. I can't decide if it would be more scary to go in or to remain outside. The store seems to be both inviting us in and telling us to bugger off at one and the same time.

Nice lighting, nice composition. About the place being scary, I agree that somehow you get this feeling, probably because of the darkness surrounding the store, the color of the sky, Cool shot Chris!

Excellent! I've a feeling you really heightened the spookiness factor.

How do you do these shots Chris? Your processing is always top knotch, and you seem to catch something ephemeral in each shot. I'm not sure I'd want you to be my body guard though, you seem to find yourself in some rather eery places...

Gosh!!! Yep, love it. So inner-city Melbourne cool little milk bar with such character - open for business and all I wanted was milk, it was never meant to be milk and a Chocolate Mint drumstick!

That's beautiful. I love the colors and the still, middle-of-the-night mood.

That little building looks so vulnerable there under that incredibly brooding sky. Could be a scene from the Hammer House of Horror! Super work with the lighting on this one mate.

It does look like a scene from a scary movie. The composition creates the mood for me, with the size of the building in the frame against that wonderful threatening sky. Excellent processing. Nice one.
