You take a lot of photos of walls. Brick walls.
This one is great, though. I think it is a bit
confusing with trouble finding the focus point(the window?). If it is the window, I like it.
The wall seems so ugly and messed up, then comes this white window. Very good contrast. Without it I don't think this photo would have been much.

To me the image is about an object that isn't there any more. The mortar leaking from the bricks means that the wall that we _do see_ was built AFTER the building that we _no longer see_.

And then there's that window ...

I think I prefer this one more.. That little window seems so out of place. From inside one would have seen roof.. and only roof previously - I'm sure the owners of that window are a little happier now. :)

Nice shot. I like this one better than the other one in this series. That little window allows the viewer to breath. The wall is vanishing beautifully and the window is standing up there clean and flawless. Can you imagine how wierd it'll look if the wall falls but the window stays up in the air all alone?

nice, grabs me for some reason. the contrast makes the window look like it's been pasted on, really. surprised you didn't use flash trick on this one.

You capture things which most people would just pass by every day without ever noticing.
I like it!!

You know what this reminds me of? Those images from Hiroshima where there would be a shadow of a person who was vaporized by a bomb. In this instance, though, it's a vaporized house. What disaster left only this shadow? The opposite of a neutron bomb, perhaps? A device that kills only the buildings and leaves the people?
