St Giles', Oxford

as used to be...

You took another shot of this from further to the right, which I cannot find. That was the one which I was hoping to emulate.

That's the one.

I see you've cribbed my sign and stuck it over the Ramen Kulture sign. (big improvement)
I'm just waiting for the lamp to topple over to the left, where that blank wall is.

On second thoughts, that is NOT my sign, as the lettering is slightly different
and you've omitted some of the punctuation.

The name was changed using PhotoShop, but the tables and chairs which spoil the picture are too difficult to remove.

The lamp needs to topple over to the right, as it did in reality, but it needs to have blank wall behind it. Thanks to the scaffolding protruding from the building next door, I couldn't position it so that it did.

Apart from the intrusive white awning and door handle on the extreme right, your picture is perfect, and I only wish that I'd discovered that subject in time and had photographed it from that same POV.

Why does the lamp have to topple to the right?
Seeing as it's a fake scene, there's no reason why it shouldn't topple to the left.

But I'm still curious as to why you missed the full stop.

The existing background would be too difficult to reconstruct if the lamp were moved. But the full stop and acute accent have been added to the sign, as well as a replica of the old sub-heading. And the red oriental rubric has been erased from the window.

Oh yes, that's MUCH better! Must send a link to the Japanese to show them how it's done,
