    Old Window 607

    I pass this old window everyday on the way to and from work and have been meaning to take a picture of it for a long time. The things that I find interesting about it are the wire, the number 607 and also the old meter bases. Also the old metal siding. With all of that said, What do you think?

    For some reason, I didn't get the orginal post photo. I have a thing for old building and things of that nature.
    Loved how the revised photo has turned out.

    Once again PR members never fail to amaze me.

    It is an interesting window, kind of a mystery here. What is on the other side?

    How can I be lost
    If I've got nowhere to go?

    Re: Old Window 607

    I think this shot works well with or without the wire. However since the wire was there to begin with, I would vote to leave it in Nice shot either way Greg. I'm with Tyson, what's on the other side? Have any other shots of this building? Seems like it has lots of character.

    Srry, but I like it without the wire and then if it were cropped some off the top.
    I think I don't like the wire as the window grabs my eye first and then the first thing to follow is the wire which leads to no where. Does that make sense?
