I love this!!! Part of me would like to have it so that I can see more of whatever it is on the wall in a single pane. That said, it may have ruined the mood of the composition as you have it. This is great!!!
Not bad, Seb. I like the framing here and your placement of the window. I would like to see a slight bit of detail in the interior near the window or on the sill. Is this where you wound up hiding from the unleashed robot?
Tim: Actually, I have applied a slight barrel distortion correction to this picture but there wasn't much to correct. Although not visible on this final version due to the darkness, the interior wall is very straight. The bent edge of the window (and the bent brick wall outside) appears to come from the angle at which the scene was shot.
Dbutler: Well I am glad that you like it! The colors aren't exactly like what I would have liked but I think it's still decent.
Gary: I am fairly comfortable with the darkness as it stands but I guess that some more experimentation can't hurt. I'll try a very moderate contrast mask to see what can come out of it.
The window is nicely placed but I feel the brick wall is too close to the actual window frame and lacks a bit of interest (a bit of that old electrical stuff for instrance). I would also like a little more detail in the brickwall surrounding the window.
But when this is set up along side all your other brilliant brickworks shots it will sit comfortably amongst them.
It's like a piece of music that when heard in icolation it does not hit you but when heard in the context of the whole cd it sounds differently.

I have a total lack of respect for anything connected with society, except that which makes the roads safer, the beer stronger, the food cheaper, and the old men and old women warmer in the winter and happier in the summer. Brendan Behan
I like this as well as any of this theme you have pursued. The framing with the negative space is very important to make the rest work but I wonder if there is almost too much along the bottom? Yes, the left and bottom balance as do the top and right, but I see this photo with less at the bottom so the eye doesn't run away from the view in the window frame. I really like how the light and shadow fall across the wall but would like to see a different level of detail in the rafters. Nice work!
