 After telling myself I didn't want to enter a literal picture of a number, I entered a literal picture of a number. I console myself with the thought that it is redeemed by some strong graphical aspects, which came out well in b&w.

There is no border - the white lines are painted on the same over-door window that the address number is. On my screen, I can see both bottom corners of the ceiling clearly, which adds a nice geometric aspect of its own - but I suspect some viewers might not be able to see it on their monitors.

Stumped for a title on this one, as I really didn't want to just say "11901" - so I took my title from that sliver of glow extending off the right side of the light fixture. A kind of "Where's Waldo" title.
