Interesting textures in your window. Unfortunately the clock takes away the focus on the beautiful textures.
Is this B&W? It looks more like sepia to me, perhaps it's my monitor.
But I do like the sepia tones on this shot, highlighting the age.
I think you could have focused your camera head on instead of looking up at the window. That way the top left frame would have been straight.
Nice job with the flash, nicely lit. Taking a shot with flash on a window is definately difficult.
In my opinion, I think I would have liked to see the whole window to help tell the story and give the shot some atmosphere. But that's probably because your image makes me want to know more about your window.
Very cool.

Thanks Debbie, because of where it was I couldnt move the clock & the 200-300 focal distance, created quite a few problems - to show you the whole window I would have needed 24-50 ish at the most !!!
It is B&W, converted in PSP X2
