Nice lighting. I like the quiet of this

Very nice capture. The black and white goes really well here, the scene looks very retro, which fits the B&W. The border works nicely too. The composition and crop are very nice, the shot was set up very well.

On the downside, the lighting doesn't quite work. I understand the challenge of the highlights coming from the light sources, but the chalkboard and chair on the left are just too under exposed, in my humble opinion.

Overall, an excellent location and a nice shot. Thanks for capturing it.

Good image..it gives me a midcentury feeling while it is empty..excellent composition and use of duotone(?) or tint is effective, all the diagonals draw the eye inward...one of the best..

Shot is very well done, I like b&w shots. Its missing something, maybe a person or some other point of interest?.....6

Nice B&W, good contrast, nice framing, an empty coffee shop longing for guests... I like it.

Wow, looks inviting. Neat perspective although rarely seen this empty(like when I want to order). Nice use of B&W here.

nice. Might look even better if you used warm tones for this?

nice interior shot, and nice b&w tones. i would be interested in seeing what the addition of customers or activity would bring to the visual interest of this composition.

Focus is amazing. Love the shadowy effects - IMO you nailed this shot 100%. Well Done :)

I can see this image as a classical picture hanging on a wall. Nice shot and great B&W conversion.
