| Hey, I recognize this...it's Diamond Head, Hawaii:-) This is a unique shot that would be spectacular if you work a little on the composition. First the curtain does not complement the scene in the position it is in right now. It devides the view when you could show us it to us as a whole. My suggestion would be to move it off to the side to soften the square frame of the window. Also if the curtain could be drawn in such a way as to show some soft folds in the cloth that would also "soften" and add curves to that square natural frame of the window - making it very eye catching. Next, the colors of the sky seem pale and washed out making the scene unassuming....it needs to pop out and grab us. Perhaps shoting the same scene later in the day when the colors of the sky get more saturated and deepere in hue (12 noon is generally a rotton time to shot because of harsh light conditions) Perhaps a sunset or just before sunset would have been a better time to capture this. Overall the idea for framing the shot is good. It just needs a little added "pop" to the composition. |

| I like it. Might have been better if you somehow got the drape and chairs (?) out of the way. Wish I had that view! |

| Nice view from your Kitchen. The only thing that I would have done different is to move the curtain a littel to the left to not split the natural picture frame, just a thought. I have seen that view when I was in Honolulu at the Mariott and the end of the strip. PS: Love the coconuts. |

i like this.. a tiny bit of light reflected onto foreground would have balanced it more

| I can live with the window, it is a nice idea. The curtain and the other objects that I cannot quite make out are very distracting. |

Where is that where is that?
Should be cropped evenly. A bit more to the right. I give it a 9 |

| For a still life, I really like this shot. The window frame frames the photo nicely and the shadowed fruit looks very nice. I'm not sure if it's the kind of landscape the voters will be thinking of, but I like the composition of this shot. |

| good improve use of the curtain for framing. Just a little off on the window ledge - sloping a little |

| without the curtain, this would have almost looked like a picture on a wall. The curtain distracts from the landscape theme. |

| diamond head! sigh, such an awesome symbol. awesome job. i don't know if i love the curtain, but it does give the picture a nice flair. if there was a way to darken the sky a bit, i think that this picture would be even better. good job! |
