I have been looking at a lot of light coming in windows lately. All different and all with their own mood because of the light. I especially like the atmosphere of this one created by the very bright light at the window in one corner and the dark chair in the opposite corner. The shadows of the blinds are a nice extra. Good find and good shooting.

Mike--This is a really fine shot, especially the way the light pours through the curtain and onto the wall just back of the chair. Good range of tones throughout and capture of a mood. I love the contrast between the light bars to the left of the chair and the dark bars of the chair itself. I even wonder if you possibly have yet another photo in this one by focusing just on the chair and the light reflections above it.

Your usual terrific work--I, too, am endlessly fascinated by the play of light through windows, the shadows and reflections cast therefrom. Here you are truly "painting with light." I'm off for back surgery in the morning and this image will be a good one for me to carry with me to reflect on.

 

I'm glad you chose to tell us where this location is and why it's important to you--that makes the image more meaningful to me.

 

Regards to you and Jane.
