Hmmmm, i’m a bit surprised by the lack of reaction. Welcome back for sure :smile:. I like this because there is such surface tension. At one glance it looks like a graphical composition solely on the surface of the paper and at a second glance it looks like a deep 3-D representational rendering of a building. A little bit analogous to one of those drawings of a cube where the viewer cannot decide if the cube is projecting in or out of the paper.

Good strong range of tones and pleasing use of the witness marks from the film holder. I am sure the decision to keep people out of the frame was not accidental. It effectively deprives the photograph of something (is it scale?) and thereby radically heightens the graphical aspect. Two thumbs up.
