Great shot, Jack!! The color is appealing and the contrasting darkened window and doorway (?) shadow makes this work really well for me! I would even love seeing in horizontal format !! Nice work. Markjay

I agree with everyone - really nice. And bonus points for it not being white! bee1000

Looks excellent now Jack, the straightening really added to the pic IMHO. Thanks. Great pic. Vikas.

I like the geometric shapes in this, Jack. The triangle on the right is a bit of an optical illusion, going from negative space to solid and back again in my eye. Very nice! ~Sharon

Vikas, thanks for the critique. I made some adjustments to the different angles, and I do believe it made a world of difference in this image. At first I was just so-so, now I really like this image. Thanks again, Jack

Thanks Vikas, there's a lot of conflicting angles going on here. It's hard to describe where, and how this shot was taken. It's a view of a three story skylight in my home going up from the staircase leading to the second floor. There's a balcony in the master bedroom that looks out into this area, and I shot it lying on the floor in the bedroom looking up into the skylight. I played around with it a little trying to straighten things up a bit, but there are so many conflicts I finally decided to leave it along. I may give it another try though.

Very nice Jack... just a tiny quibble, would the opening look better if it were straightened at a 90 degree angle? Vikas
