This is a strking photo full of a lot of detail, textures and emotion. I wonder who looks out this window every day, and what do they see? The aged wood around it has a story of its own. Your black and white conversion is beautifully done and you have very minimal sharpening contrast around the branches. If you were going for an aged weathered look by using the ISO 400, then you did well. I might like to see it done in iso100 too as a crisper shot. The only other thing that my eye is drawn to is the branch appearing to touch the peak of the roof. A slighty different angle might have given a little more space there and added depth between the two.

I really like this shot. I rated it high during the competition. Keep up the good work.

Seems a little too high contrast. The darks are dark, the lights are light, and there is not too much in between. I realize this may have been difficult to affect given the natual lighting and depending on your camera.

Cool! Great high contrast black and white, and very strong composition. The tree twigs are just gorgeous. 10!

Somewhat disorienting composition for me. Love the black and white, and the tree in the shot, building is too dark for my taste- would have liked to have seen that lightened up a bit.
