I love the colors in this photo, and the lighting on the sides and bottom of the window. Feels very vintage and European.

Your pic is very soothing and calm me a lot. I love it. Could you contact me so I can buy a copy of It? Thanks.

Nice shot. The black window edge really sets a great tone for the shot. Good negative space! 8 - chrisab.

Excellent pic. Only the window and beyond seem to exist.
09/21/2002 08:30:00 AM
This really has the feel of a handpainted old black and white. The detail of the bricks in the window is what makes the framing work so well for me. The clouds and sky feel like a painting.

I could have sworn I commented this one. Great shot. I really love everything, except maybe the sky. The coloration used here (IMO) doesn't quite work for sky. Don't worry, I loved the rest so much, you're still getting an 9. Swash

Oh my.. how beautiful. I love the framing idea, I've been wanting to try something like this myself.
09/20/2002 10:40:00 AM
great idea for theme, ok photo/composition (there is something kind of nasty about that yellowy sky!)
09/20/2002 09:55:00 AM
gorgeous photo! Everything fits. Negative space applies, but not the wow factor on this one. 9

This is just beautiful. It feels like you could just step into another place and time.
09/19/2002 06:56:00 AM
Haunting....
09/19/2002 06:10:00 AM
This looks like it could have been taken many many years ago! Lovely mood and overall hues and texture of the brick wall.

Excellent idea. I would have liked it better in natural colors but I like most things that way. I like it a lot though. Nice job.
09/18/2002 02:57:00 PM
As the other contributer, greate idea!
09/18/2002 01:51:00 PM
Sky colors are a bit odd, but excellent challenge interpretation.
09/18/2002 03:28:00 AM
I always love window shots. I esp. like the monochrome effect in yours.
09/17/2002 08:49:00 PM
Still, quiet, serene and almost dreamlike.
09/17/2002 06:52:00 PM
Similar to another entry which I also liked alot...9
09/17/2002 06:22:00 PM
I would buy this photo ! job well done !

One of my favorites this week. Has a surrealistic feel. Nice use of the NS and a great shot.
09/17/2002 09:31:00 AM
Exellent
09/17/2002 04:35:00 AM
Very nice - good use of neg space.
09/17/2002 04:19:00 AM
Composition: changing this to sepia spoils this very nicely composed shot 8 Lighting: I get the feeling the exposure of the sky was out on this shot 5 Appeal: 8, Total Rating 7 Sulamk

good.good.
09/16/2002 07:52:00 PM
wow. was this taken with a sepia filter? great job. cmcvety.
09/16/2002 07:00:00 PM
I really like this image. Good composition, the proper use of lighting I think created a dramatic effect on the subject. This looks like a classical painting. - labrynthe

So damn very interesting.
09/16/2002 03:22:00 PM
very cool use of - space. it's a shame u couldn't get more color in there.
09/16/2002 12:44:00 PM
What an ancient look to this! Very nice indeed. There appears to be some over saturation in the sky that doesn't look natural. Good luck in the challenge...it's a tough one! Grayce aka Gracious
09/16/2002 11:28:00 AM
great composition
09/16/2002 11:27:00 AM
What a cool picture! I love this one!
09/16/2002 11:00:00 AM
creates a feeling of longing for the outdoors, being trapped...like the coloring

Very nice usage of what I assume is negative space. I like what you did with the color on this one. Focus and lighting are good 9
09/16/2002 07:45:00 AM
What a picture. I don't know how much it fits the challenge, but I like it.

The tones are wonderful here............the whole shot is wonderful..........I really like this. Wish it was a bit more sharp. Score 8 Justine

That's not a window, it's a hole!! It's a nice photo, not sure what happened with the white bits in the cloud though (half way up the sky, coming from left to right), I guess that was a result of the post processing.
09/16/2002 05:18:00 AM
Rapunzal's view......... this is how i imagine the landscape of a fable....... this is soooooooo beautiful......... Harry Potter lives here. The simple concept of the window frame serves the challenge well in this magical illustration
