I am initially drawn to the water and sky that is framed by the railing and window frame. I would prefer the colour rather than black and white version, which I feel would bring the scene more to life. What strikes me most is the juxtaposition between the dilapidation of what appears to me to be an abandoned building, which evokes a feeling of desolation/depression, and the beach/ocean scene, which symbolizes, for me, life, oxygen, nature and sense of order. From a technical point of view, I like the frame within a frame. On the other hand, the scene appears to be very busy and lacking in focus/contrast (be it light, clarity, colour or what have you), so that my eye wanders to various elements of the photo and it is hard to pick out the central theme/story/subject(s). Still, there is something compelling and melancholic about the scene for me.
