Two Melbourne Iconic Establishments

#1 is pretty much SOOC, just a small crop to remove some unwanted street clutter.

Great shots John. Couple of great shops. I like your treatment on #1. Good thing the arrow is on that sign in City Hatters, otherwise I wouldn't know where to go in.

Glad you noticed Alan, I layerd a B/W copy over the colour layer and adjusted the opacity to try and "age" these images. Looks like it may just have worked. None of the images that I've posted in these three "CBD" posts have had much PP work.

Interesting John, they have an old-style look about them on the outside at least.

These two establishments have been at the same location in Flinders Street since before I was a kid.
