| I love the textural as well as color variants. The contrast between the gray hard stone and the soft green through the window is not only visual but literal. Excellent shot. |

| i am constantly drawn to this shot for some reason. it could be the starkness and simplicity, or perhaps it is that even though the surrounding picture is dull and grey, a sense of life lies through the window. either way--i really like it! nice work. |

I puzzled over that very same thing when I submitted the image.It`s there in black and white(no pun intended) on the exif data and I thought I was misreading it..I can only assume that the deep DOF is a bit of an optical illusion owing to the type of landscape showing through the window

Thank you to everyone for the comments and votes.
I was totally surprised to find that I had gained a ribbon this morning.
Going by the score,I honestly expected to see my picture finish between 10 & 20 as there were so many great shots in this challenge.
It certainly makes the journey (into the "back of beyond")to get the picture, seem worthwhile now.

| I like this one. Sharp all the way through and the off-center composition. Although, this may look just as good with a centered composition. |
|
| Photographer found comment helpful. |
|
|

| Easily best of the challenge. Superlative textures and the composition (using a window) is such an imaginative use of selective saturation. A thing of beauty. Well done. 10 |

| Nice idea. maybe the bit of grass in the forground could have been in colour as well, just a thought |

| Super contrast. Really well taken. Proper use of desaturation. The title brings it all together into a neat package. Just enough of the grass shows to let the viewer know that they are looking at the outside of the building. |

| A study in textures very well done! Exposure and focus on the building is perfect with a strong tonal range. It looks like you may have removed some of the color in the green backgroud - which was a goiod choice. As it is - it adds to the image - if it were bright green it would draw the viewer away from the great textures. |

| One of the few that doesn't feel like I'm being hit around the head with a hammer with the technique. Subtle, suits the subject matter and enhances the shot a lot. |

| This is a great example of where, without selective desaturation, you wouldn't come anywhere near this kind of effectiveness. It tells a story. Gives a sense of wonder at the world that lies beyond the window. We're not in Kansas anymore, Toto...! Nicely done. |
