 Old Sturbridge Village. Bitch of a time with the lighting on this one. I think the window is still an eyesore, but it was very blown out before I recovered what I could.

Your image is perfect, the fire draws my attention to the lifestyle art of the man in the portrait. A little drama going on here and I like that. Congratulations!
