My first impression of this shot was that it was cluttered and busy. Then I read all the very positive comments on the shot and thought that maybe I missed something, and went back to look some more.
The shot still seems very cluttered to me. Of course, it's a mess, it's suposed to be, but in my opinion, it doesn't make for a very attractive photo. Not one I would think to see hanging on a wall or in a gallery.
That being said, and that is only my personal opinion, and technically, I think the shot is wonderful.
Angle and framing/cropping are great. I like how you get to see through the building. I like how it's not just a dead straight on shot of the windows, how it's slightly angled.
Focus is supurb. I mean, very crisp, awesome detail.
Lighting is good on the subject. There is a small sectoin of sky in the background that is a tad bright/white, but other than that, I think lighting on the subject helps to bring out the focus and detail that is so great.
My only real complaint about this is that it's just too busy for my personal taste. Otherwise, very very nice. ~Heather~
One of the better window shots that I've seen so far. You did a good job of showing the insides of the building through the window. The detail is great and so is the contrast.
I really like the view through the window to the other side of the street. The colour is just right for me. A lot of interesting things to look at, the closed book, the big book or papers lying open, the bridge in the background and the street sign etc.
Very nice.
I realy like the look of the broken glass and think this will do very well in this challenge. ot many photo's in this challenge I have come across yet that make you actually stare into the photo and really feel it like this one does. Well done and good luck in this challenge. <8>
This is my highest score I have give out yet. Will be back to re-evaluate.
I love this image, being able to look in through one window and back out through others, and being able to see the disorder inside the building as well. Good lighting, good composition, nice textures throughout. Very interesting shot. <7>
