I don't know why but I liked the way this one turned out. Debated as to whether or not I would post it but decided on the latter. Hope you like it. Comments/suggestions always appreciated.

I can't really see what you saw in this shot, but it's all in the eye of the beholder they say. That's what makes life interesting, we don't all see the same thing do we?

I think this is a good example of negative space at work. The consistency of the brick pattern and color taking most of the frame is the negative space. The sudden breaking of the pattern with the stark contrast of the white window makes the "subject" of the picture jump out at the viewer. (The subject being the window) This is probably the "why" of why you like it. Now if the window was pretty and had some flowers hanging on it every one else would see how great it is too. And you would not have debated whether to post it or not.

Well you picture does have lot of texture, but I have to agree with Carol, we all don't see things in the same way. Looks like the wall need repart especially around the window.

Noticed you haven't posted in almost a month... Maybe it is the striking white and red, or the different textures. The fact that it is not appealing to they eye makes me look at it more. But hey don't feel bad about the c-index. I had a capture once, of lightning bugs at night, you see these wonderful luminescent streaks across a black canvas, in the background there appears to be fire in the trees. Guess what it garnished ?! a 4! haha , many look for the aesthetics of a picture not the voice or uniqueness of each. Anyhow I've decided to remove most of my images from this site, seeing how it is strange the way this site works and operates, almost like an ant farm. Amazing how you have these praetors and blah blah who have only uploaded nasa photos and been promoted to the highest ranks. Ehh, enough ranting... To each their own and your shot is unique and that's what makes it appealing.

Well observed Ryan, and good to see you're posting. I've been absent all summer so I can relate. There's a bit of barrel distortion in the brickwork here, from using a wide angle lens. Really hard to avoid that. Patti gave me a tip a while ago which was to set your lens at 50mm when photographing buildings. It reduces the distortion. Nicely done here though, good to see something different.
