This is a new comment series for me, so please bear with me while I find my style!

This is one of my 10s - I like it very much. Furthermore I think it enriches the DPC collective portfolio. Put simply, I wish we saw more stuff like this. Let me tell you why it pushes all the right buttons for me:
1. Shouts
tanguera to me. I like images that have a distinct style and this beautiful indoor light, interesting internal space, floating motif, rich colours has all the hallmarks.
2. Sensational mood - slightly eerie but with undertones of joy too - not an easy thing to pull off.
3. Amazing coloration - it has a richness that belies its fairly limited colour palette.
4. Superb light, superbly captured. This image is sooooo exposure critical and you have nailed it.
5. Composition - leading lines and a great sense of depth - way to use the z axis!
6. Depth of field - it's really important that we are able to see the full depth of your image, this would suggest a small aperture.... but you've frozen the fabric suggesting a decently quick shutter speed - no noise to speak of, so there was loads of natural light meaning those windows are really, really bright - well done on controlling the exposure across the frame or you've illuminated the fabric with a strobe - well done on getting that so well balanced and natural looking.
Overall, one of those images where everything hangs together beautifully. From photograph to art (without compromising the process, practice and craft) of photography.
Should ribbon.
