Description

The window of a derelict plantation building outside Thibodaux, LA that I took mainly as a study of lines and texture. 1/25s @ f/8.0.

I like that there are no reflections in the window. #4151048

This is an excellent technical study of lines and texture, William. The composition and exposure are perfect. To me, it is even more a study of human nature. If challenged to create a bizarre window scene, it would be difficult to come up with something this strange.

My only recommendation is to use a title that focuses on the kind of person who created this incongruous mixture of safety and openness. Perhaps something like Shuttered and Secure or My Space.

Thanks for your comments Steve. I will have to think about a new title. I didn't really think about how others would perceive this picture. It was an abandoned plantation building that the owners of the land had apparently put the shhet metal on the lower windows to keep out itinerants and vandals.
