i like the off-kilter framing and selective focus. the only detail that would make it "darker" would be a silhouette of someone in one of the windows....nice image

Sorry Lonnit! =) Seems to be a LensBabyBoom here. Or is it just me and Lonnit..? Shu, a lensbaby is a plastic lens with no easy way of changing the aperture, awkward focusing, extreamly unsharp corners, terrible chromatic abberation and lots of light fall off at the corners. What you can do is to control where to put the focus like an large format camera with bellows. In other words: This lens is a baby if you want to take a photo that is less then perfect technically but with lots of "feeling"! /Jonas

YOU STINKER! ;) LOL!!!! I cannot believe you beat me in here with your Lensbaby shot! LOL! I saw the theme of the challenge and I instantly thought, "This is a job for Lensbaby!". I ran to the kitchen, grabbed a knife and within minutes I had my shots. I went to pick up the kids from school, came back, prepped them and opened the galler. BAMMO! There's your lensbaby shot sitting there! Great minds think alike! :) ~ Lonnit

Twisted, dark viewpoint makes the neighborhood VERY unpopular! What is a "lensbaby?" Neat shot. Shu

Nice! The lensbaby's distortion really added a great atmosphere and the stark B&W strengthens it.
