Window

Hi Tom! Thanks for commenting on my forum post. Maybe I'll "practice" on you. :-)

I found myself drawn to your "window" images when I looked through your portfolio. I had the opportunity a few years ago to wander some of the small towns in Southwest France and loved taking shots of the unique windows and doors - so full of character. Nothing like our cookie cutter assembly line stuff here in the U.S.

The chili peppers and the neat designs in the shutters caught my eye, also. AND, the curves in the bottom of the shot give you some nice balance. If it were me, I might have tried playing with the skew tool in photoshop, just to straighten the photo a little - although I'm sure that "completely straight" would be impossible, as I'm sure that the window itself is not completely straight!

Happy shooting!
