The Crown & Tuns, Deddington

They're nice windows, but the eye is confused about whether to focus on them or the church.
It might have worked better if you'd allowed more west and south.

My own picture is more of a documentary one, but I pointed upwards to include
the heavenly clouds that seem to be emanating from the church.

I agree that even with in-period windows it doesn't make a great picture, but it does make up the number of shots I got on Thursday to 8, a nice even number.



I sent this before-and-after composite to the lady who pulled up in her open-topped Porche to ask me why I was taking a picture of her house (I told her I was a burglar and casing the joint). She appreciated my removing the hideous TV aerial defacing the Tudor chimney (why this is allowed on listed buildings baffles me) but didn't notice that her window and lantern had been repositioned.

Eric might reassert his opinion that you must be "potty" to spend so much time editing photos.

But I'm surprised you didn't remove the velux window.

1. I'd have him realise that without that editing, there would (as far as I am concerned) be no picture. I just deplore there being the need to.

2. I normally do, but with its dark frame this one isn't such an eyesore and it provides a bit of balancing detail in an otherwise rather empty corner.
