    The beauty salon building is great.
    Afraid I can find nothing good to say about the background building or the area at the side of the building.
    I tried some scroll cropping but could not find anything satisfactory.
    You may be able to find a better crop than I can.
    Keep Shooting!

    I guess I think a tighter crop would help. The mystical beauty photo in the window is much like the ghost of a fetish, but I also think the building beyond the bricks mostly detracts. I think if it were toned down and just emerging from the background it would probably be different. The strangeness of the intent does not want just the regularity of the brick. It needs the older building, but I think it needs it to be darker.
