This is very inviting and makes me want to go peek through that slat above the knocker. I like both images and enjoyed the processes of thinking about each one!
The darker image seems more dramatic, but I really like the greater tonal range, texture, and detail seen in this version. And, this excellent image is not without mystery and drama! Great work, Neil! V
This is such a beautiful work. The textures are so appealing. It is amazing to me how one can change so dramatically the feeling that an image has. Here the inverse of the twin image...it is very inviting. ~V~
