The old Music Maker shop in South Shields has been derelict for at least 10 years, I think the guy who owned it died one day and it never re-opened, maybe he never had any family, maybe he's still in there.

Photo has been exported to TIF from Capture NX, then edited in Lightroom. Image has been cropped and enlarged, turned to black & white with a tone change. I have applied a slight amount of noise and sharpening. Some distortion was corrected as the street was full of parked vehicles and I couldnt get the angle I wanted.
