Saw this afternoon. It seems to be in a window across the street from an ultra conservative church.
post: crop, levels and Brightness contrast adjustment layers, USM. clone three bright white dots out. No grain was added, the window needs a good cleaning. Resize, USM.

Interesting shot... unfortunately your subject doesn't quite stand out enough from the surroundings to draw my eye in. Burnt out highlights are unfortunate. Rest of the photo has some interesting textures, but this is part of the problem as they take attention away from the subject.
Nicely done. The BW really compliments the pic. My only problem is the figure seems to be almost overexposed, try shooting at a different time of day when the sun is not quite so straight down.
Nice use of b/w, excellent shadows. I may have cropped a little more from the sides as horizontal lines on the left seem to distract more than add any value to the picture.
I think you could have even cropped this with just the window frame (dark gray) and inward and we still would have picked up on the fact that the venus was through a window. Great Idea, very good picture.
