  •  Comment -- It is an interesting subject and could produce a nice FP, but more attention is needed to the technical details. Three suggestions: (i) take the shot from a larger distance so that the geometric distortion is minimized and the window is shown as rectangular as possible (use a lens with a larger focal distance, e.g. 100mm). The remaining geometric distortions can be corrected later in the computer; (ii) don't use automatic exposure. The unnecessary high ISO setting of 400 produced a lower quality image because of excessive noise. I would have underexposed the shot a bit, so that the brighter parts we can see through the window are not overexposed. This will be corrected later in the computer; (iii) increase color saturation to correct for the washed-out paint of the window and make the reds more vivid. I can't promise that these suggestions will produce a FP but I believe they will make the photo more interesting. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 09:26, 28 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
