I'm expecting a few "It's crooked" comments. It's actually level, but was not shot directly facing, making the wall seem to slope away.

Also good for comments this go around will be the lamp in the lower left. Personally, I like the tension and offsetting angle it presents. However, I'm sure many will find it distracting. :-)

I really want to like this picture (I like windows), but it seems a little flat. Have you thought about going back at sunset or sunrise to see if the lighting would have a different impact on the glass?

I like the washed out look of the brick. Bet this was hard to compose.

I would have like to see more of the building, but that's just me. No vote, I'm in this one.
