 I had to use manual focus to stop the lens focussing on the laundry basket. (It's a laundry basket).

I would never have thought laundry basket you did good.

I had to look at this one for a while - it does look like a window pane. Nice sly wink at all those voters with their rulers out, QED indeed! :)

To me the border and grid gives the impression of looking into a window (frame and panes). And so sneaky showing where the thirds are.

Very nice of you to provide the graphical divisions to aid the voters. :-) Good challenge entry, but I much prefer the one you didn't enter (though I understand it was beyond basic.)

the border's a bit too much, no?

This would be greatly improved by cropping out the light fixture at the top. Also, the horizontal lines extending through the border doesn't add to the image.

Nice photo, but I think your border actually takes away from the photo in a couple of ways. It looks like you are trying to use the border to make it fit the thirds challenge (which may not be the case, but that is what it looks like). And also your overlaps into the border and can still be seen.
