    Been traveling?

    Interesting window photograph with muted complimentary colors framing the steam and pool. I like this one with only one minor possible alteration- the color band at the base of the photo is slightly wider than than the color at the top which breaks the framing effect slightly for me.

    Fine symmety contrasts well with the irregular steam and resultant scattered light!

    I like the colors and composition too. The steam on the windows adds a nice touch. A good shot of something I would have walked right by. You got a great eye for sublects Tuna, Great as always.

    A very typical Tuna shot .. and interesting as always! You certainly have an eye for a clean composition and often, as here, the sense of voyeurism - a sense of the photographer as an "observer". Personally, I don't have a problem with the bottom band being wider than the top - to me it gives a nice "base" to the image. I like it a lot.

    It's such a welcome to see colour tones that we don't often see in any photographs. It's just so simple yet it grabs hold of the the old imagination. The background inside looks out of place as if it should not be there; almost like a reflection from somewhere else. And add to it all the steam that is coming through the seals on my crap monitor.
    The Beatles did it with songs, both simple and sophisticated. Tuna does the same with photographs.
    Tuna can I swipe this and let on it is my own?
