Daniela, it's fine as it is and doesn't need a polarizer.

Nice! Its like the head behind the window is just an echo of the bottom. Yes, a polarizer would help but its more intriguing as is.

Ok, thanks. I could see some shadow details on the head, so I would have liked for that to show :smile:

Got it. Thanks!

Nice image - an in between solution of the window head would be a small selection in the window area (in Pshop or some editing software) with an increase in contrast via a curve adjustment, just enough to improve visibility.
Today's equivalent to burning in when enlarging.

You won't regret having a polarizer - it's a handy thing to have. As it is, you could burn in the window a bit through a #5 filter to darken the shadow behind the head. But like Clive said, it looks good as it is.

I'm actually unhappy about the darkroom print, still don't care to learn much about software. I'm still working on the print though :smile:

Thanks!
