Under The Boardwalk II

This photo, taken at the base of the Queensborough Bridge, shows The Food Emporium on the left and The Terence Conran Store on the right. The beginning of the Queensborough Bridge can be seen in the background of the photo.

The Terence Conran Store is a British departmental store that specializes in contemporary furniture and housewares. The store also houses a small florist and carries a small selection of books and music.

Conran is British? I thought it was French, since I shopped there while in Paris.
Hope your week-end is not too blue!

Have a great week. Still no food photos from the Emporium eh? :-p

Love the cool hues of twilight!
Conrans has always been a favorite store-sadly we don't have one in Minneapolis though.

It's fascinating how the camera interprets colors. It was late in the afternoon when I took this photo. The sun has just set so there were some light left in the sky. I took the photo with a slow shuttle speed and it came out blue.

keropokman - I didn't think to take food photos at The Food Emporium. Plus after shooting a couple shots, the security guy said I can't take photos inside the supermarket. So I put my camera away. :-(

On second look, this food emporium seem similar to Harrods. Is it ?
