Seems the subject is the window. I think the effect would have been stronger if the focus had been on the window and not the wall and beyond.

My only wish is that the wall was in focus as well. After all it is a part of the building as well. Nice job framing the picture.

Severe purple fringing let this image down a lot, the quality / clarity isnt there either. I realise these are technical rather than artistic criticisms, but they can both be reduced past the level presented here, if not in postwork but in use of whatever camera you have. Nice out of the box concept but doesnt really say "clown" to me unless you read the title which is infact an idiom, so is only related to clowns in an abstract manner anyway.

Funny shot! - But it feels as if it was shoehorned into the challenge. Also, the focus is off.

Haha! I love your title and your picture! IMO though i don't really think this fits the challenge. Good picture though!

Comment by spencerwood:
Noisy reflections, blue fringing and not particularly sharp let this down technically. Artistically this is well composed although only connected to the brief through the title and so is a little weak in that respect

I dig the reflection and the framing. The chromatic aberrations (snow will do that to you) are pretty severe, the image seems a touch "soft" and it is a stretch for the challenge.

Focus is not sharp, and only meets requirements by title.
