Very interesting picture. At first looking at it would have said maybe a bar and that was the bartender in a trendy converted space that's now a bar/restaurant. Until I see the book holder I'd never guess this is a bookstore. But whatever it's a nice picture with interesting lighting, lines and angles.
Blansky, a belated thank you. It's always an honor to read your analyses and critiques of photographs of other photographers on this site. You are a good and gentle teacher.
