A very interesting effect and mergeing of the close sill and the ground below.... the visual illusion that they are on one plane, created with the colour is remarkable. Really a unique view.
The more I look at this image the more i like it. The off-kilterness adds to the feeling of vertigo looking down as if falling into the past. The lines of the window, wal, ledge, shadows, and horizon make interesting shapes. I can tell a lot of thought was put into the composition. 9
