The window works for me. I like the green alien effect and unnaturally long legs. ~kt

Nice, I really like the elongated lines in this piece. I'll weigh in as liking the window in the upper left, but I fully understand Lee's suggestion to clone it out. -Michael

Great sense of depth. I admire the fact that you were able to capture the feeling of this challenge without doing much image manipulation. Love the green and yellow color combination, too.

Thank you both for the comments. Actually it was hard deciding to include a right bright area or not(it's already there, no cloning needed). I have the alternative that I will upload in the gallery. At the end I felt it was throwing the image slightly off balance. The window is actually light coming in from windows giving the impression of one. In general I try to limit image manipulation as much as possible. This one has cropping, contrast adjustment and a darkening mask on the left-right shadow areas (except the window light). The person to my left is sweeping the floor :-)
Thanks again - elGeorgio

I see why Fly said that but I think it adds to the overall funkiness of this image - and clarifies the light as coming through a doorway I think. This is a pretty wierd image. Well Done! Cindy

great shadows. Might want to consider cloning out the window in the top left corner. Just a thought.
