You have done it again!
I don't have to care about what I'm looking in your photo, just I walk into, from a plain to another, from the enlightened zone to the dark. An entire world of different volumes and paths! endika

Hi all.......
No Frank this is Chicago but could just as easy be New York. Great eye and imagination Brent. I never saw that little crown till your comment. I know it's very high contrast but I have been pushing things when I know I want B&W. I don't care nearly as much about "blown" highlight in B&W and in this case it was intentional. I'm with you shirley.....was gonna call it "Suits and Steeples". The window display is the ground level of the John Hancock Building and the church is Fourth Presbyterian.

Great justposition of centuries throughout the shot.

Great title Charlie! 'Suits' the shot. Ha! All kidding aside, I do really like the display windows in your shots. It's something I rarely see. Most of the window displays I see now days are in the Mall. I enjoy your photos. Hopefully the shops on the streets will never go out of style.

Hey Charlie, is this New York? I seem to remember this. Interesting juxtaposition of architectural styles reflected in the fashion shop window, where the dummy contrasts with the people in the street. Interesting PP too.

Maybe a bit too high in contrast for me. I really like the comp and subject, though. Ok, this weekend, i'm going to try some reflections...a challenge in the challenge !
