Aberdeen

The Prince of Wales bar is one of Aberdeens
more famous bars...established in 1850,
they have been pulling a good pint ever since!

Looks like a great place; well captured with the wide-angle
Guest 05-Jan-2010 21:16
This is great... the high contrast processing works so well here and I am enjoying your journey through Aberdeen so far!
Nicki Thurgar05-Jan-2010 20:21
Perfect for B&W, so well composed!
Doug Cruden05-Jan-2010 19:02
I (don't) remember many a fine night's drinking in Aberdeen...not sure if we were ever in here :o)). Beautiful image Stewart, the strong contrast and the soon-to-be-customer really bring this alive...a shot to be proud of! V

The wet cobblestones add a charm which is possibly not apparent to a local :-)
Guest 05-Jan-2010 10:13
Fantastic composition and contrasts.
Guest 05-Jan-2010 09:37
nice contrl of DOF although I find that the lines draw me away from the pub, not in to it, which contrasts with the man going in. contrasting name as well
Maaike Huizer05-Jan-2010 09:23
It feels like back in time. Excellent composition and contrasts.

Before I saw the description, my thought was, "How much does the Prince cost?" Beautiful contrast and textures in this shot! That pavement is great!
Jeff Lobaugh05-Jan-2010 01:54
Great lines and I love the shine off of the street!

very attractive shot...great mood!
Phillip Normanton04-Jan-2010 23:13
I think I was in there a few years ago... when Scotland had brought in the smoking ban but England hadn't - I couldn't work out why people kept 'disappearing'!!

I'm still loving your Aberdeen series.. I was last in there in 1989 after journeying up for a John Martyn concert!!
Kathryn04-Jan-2010 22:19
Love the perspective and cobbles on this fine shot.
I'm really enjoying your other side of Aberdeen gallery.
tinkerb04-Jan-2010 22:09
I have never been there in daylight, looks more inviting from the outside especially with the pespective that leads you in. Nice capture.
Mairéad04-Jan-2010 22:05
This is really stepping back in time, both the subject matter and the treatment, excellent.
