Wonderful composition, but flesh tones could use some color balancing to get rid of the yellow cast.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Overall this is a great shot, the clarity, the curver of the ceiling and floor, they lead you around the shot, the piece in the center to bring you back in. The reflection on the left, to me, is the only way I would be able to tell that this was taken through a window and to me, takes more away from the shot than helps it. If there was a frame on the left or right that could have defined the shot for me, I think I would have liked it much better.

As for the shot overall, there is not a lot of interest to really hold me here for long. THe lines are great and composition is very well done but the subject matter is a bit on the dull side. Not sure if cropping would help or not.
Good Luck In Future Challenges!

Very good eye to have seen this, but I wish, the window view being theme, that there was more window and less gallery. Nice exposure and shot.

bery nice & original. If it were not for the reflection, it would be hard to see how this was taken from the outside. I like that! Good stuff!

Sorry I cant see the "window glass or frame" here to tell the viewer it's been taken from a window as per challenge????. There is some reflection there but it's confusing rather than adding to the shot.

Are we looking though a window? The challenge stated that the frame had to be visible. Otherwise the window is a small one on the left of the frame which is definitely not the point of focus. This doesn't meet the challenge for me.

The reflections are a great counterpoint to the wall curving away and the sculpture in the foreground. Cool shot - 9

I'm assuming the window view is the reflection we are seeing on the far wall? That's my impression anyway and I think it's great! Very imaginative and unique!
