Re: window dressing

This composition works nicely for me without even a focal point, Mark.

As you might guess from such comments in several of my previous posts ( ), I personally would do something with the large pure-white area across the top.

I might also think about adding some color to the grays. Maybe some slightly richer blue shadowing than is there now? Or something in the way of its compliment?

Re: window dressing

Thanks James, desrat and Katie.
Desrat, I will probably reduce that area at top when I mat it for framing!
