A Single Window - Old and Shabby (in colour)

This entry caught me eye as soon as I saw it. I always take apart images in my head to find out what it is I find fascinating about them. This one fits the brief in every way, its "Old and Shabby" and yet it possesses an eye catching tidiness and a fabulous range of colours and textures. To be able to convey textures in a photograph is no mean feat and you have done this with ease. Well done for having the Winning image in my contest.

What a wonderful big window! I love the beautiful light that this image has in bucket fulls. There's sunlight, shade and shadows and it creates as separate little image in every pane, whether it has glass in it or not. I love all the shapes that are created through the panels and the tiles below and the beams going across. Its wonderful you have created this myriad of individual little pictures to keep the viewer interested. Its one of those images you can't just glance at but have to keep looking to see all the detail. Many thanks for entering it in my contest.

I really like this image, I find the contrast between the red brick and the blue window frame really sets it off. I like the way it is centred in the image and again I like the four panes of broken glass which each tell a unique story, albeit a sad one. Thank you for entering my contest.

I've seen this window before from some of my photography friends. It makes your heart melt when you see Teddy Bears in a window looking sad and unloved. Although someone did care enough to put them in a plastic bag! I like the way you have cropped in tight to keep the eye focused on the details in the window and it makes a nice neat image. Well done for getting in my top ten and thank you for entering my contest.
