Description
Colorized photo from 1915
Original title: Collins pharmacy
Location: New York, Long Island
You get the feeling of a real mom and pop place when you look at this. You have the pharmacy in the back, ice cream in the front, just a small cozy atmosphere. All American, the love of fishing is evident.
A customer waits for his desert, spoon in hand. A shy pharmacist in the back peeks out just barely. The soda jerk is ready to serve, next to a root beer barrel and a stack of cones. And while its a posed shot, they still look comfortable in there.
Color wise, I chose things that I would expect to see both in a pharmacy and a place that serves ice cream. I wanted it to be colorful, but not too much so. I left the cabinets a more muted brown tone to help draw the eyes into the scene. The guy in blue is the center attention, red chairs. The cabinet in the back had a lot of glare. I cloned in the door next to it to get the detail in the glared areas. The light bulbs were thick, the glass shows distortion in the center one.
