    Trippy. Very cool illusion. I love how the one that looks real at first glance is not the real one, and the one that appears to be a reflection is the real thing...crazy.

    Re: High St.

    I shouldn't have read Mr. Yuck's comments first as I didn't or don't know that its two images.
    Whatever it is, I like it. I'm attracted to the image initially because of composition and the contrast and then I start picking out details.
    If I had to nit-pik I'd say I don't like the color of the sky at top left.
    Keep Shooting!

    I'm thinking this would be a great advertising image.
    No, I DON'T need that.

    Interesting and eerily attractive but I think the colouring, for instance in one of the window frames as an example, just doesn't work for me anyway.

    I'll say it again. You are in a league all to yourself. Knowing that you shoot film this shows great control of the lighting. Well done again.

    Re: High St.

    Tuna - It's neat, but I find there to be too many distracting objects in the foreground. The objects themselves aren't bad but they're arranged in a conflicting way and are too dark to tell me what they are etc. Some might find that inviting, but for whatever reason it just makes me want to move to the next shot. Sorry.

    Re: High St.

    I agree with GB1...if it was a story and one could see a connection between the objects inside with the guy outside, then the foreground is o.k....now i look very long and twice (which is not a bad thing though), but I cannot figure out what the story is.
