The theme is forced with the use of the 1610 date.

Get square on, or take a more extreme angle. There are two windows intruding on the right side.

Comment by jsabbarton:
Technically good, but lacking in punch: I would have liked to see more (or less) of the building itself. I think closer in or all the way out to show the whole building would have improved the overall composition – just one opinion(5)

Comment by floyd:
Good choice of subjects but I think we needed to see either more or less of the building they're on. As it is we can see this is a doorway but we know nothing about what the building is. A closer zoom could have showed us more detail on the ladies themselves.

Comment by indigo997:
this is cool. i would have tried either cropping more and just showing the top of the door (without that white - railing?) or cropping less and showing the whole door

This photo shows something old... My mind wants to see the entire doorway, however. The small bit of railing on the bottom of the frame is a moinor distraction... the fact that the photo is not 'level' is not a problem... :) - jmsetzler

Het begeinenhuis! (or is begijnenhuis?). Oddly enough, this building looks so new on this picture!!! :) I know these places and I know the date is genuine and know also that they are really old and wonderful. So, it struck me as very funny. The only thing that really bothers me are the bits of the two windows on the right; would have cropped them out as it mars the composition. Ditto for the whie shape in the black overture of the gate. Daaaaag! :)

Nice shot of a building that must be old .. but....
This building and its artifacts have been maintained so wonderfully that they don't readily show "age."
