 I got off school early so went up and down a steep mountain road to get to the Tamozawa Imperial Villa, which used to be the Emperors' summer residence. The current emperor spent about a year here during the war (there's even an air raid shelter in the garden). There are about 110 rooms.
I wasn't allowed to take my tripod in. <"ยค">

perhaps a square crop would have brought the emphasis to the window more. My eyes get distracted by all the negative space to the right of the photo

Looks peaceful, no? The surround of your window, to my eye, is neither properly present nor properly dark - so I keep trying to find details in it rather than concentrating on your 'view'. A sense of exclusion from that peace might be present, but it isn't coming across strongly.
