Satya Danu 5 Hm!! Where is the house? I see a ghetto-like iron-barred window, surrounded by black 'space'.
What to do with this image?
You might want to ask yourself: “Is this image suitable to hang on a wall of a living room or office?”
   
Richard Shapka 6 The photographer seems to be presenting a concept, or idea to the viewer that may be difficult to explain with this image and title.
Two images, one large, one small, of the same subject placed above each other must express something to the photographer. But what should the viewer make of it?
Exposure of the images within the frame is handled well. Choice of black and white is good.

White sliver of light on right side of image, and a little on top right raises a question. If the photographer had such an important message to tell a story with the title, why was this detail of the white border not trimmed?
   
Larry Breitkreutz 7 Interesting, creative idea, but the message is weak. Nice contrast.
   
Total Score: 18
