Very nice composition of shapes and light and shadow. I've stared at it a while and I'm torn if I'd crop out the painted line leading from the left bottom corner to the middle bottom. Meaning crop it right at the point in the middle where it jogs down, removing that part. Which just leaves the paint that matches the angles of the windows and the wall. What's your thinking? But nice picture.

Ha. Funny you mention that. I was torn about that too. And because I couldn't decide I left as is.

I. Like it as is. I find the line is an anchor and orients the viewer. Great lighting and range of tones.

I think that if you crop that line it would also need to lose some off the left. Minor niggles to what is an arresting photo with beautiful light.

Very nicely done and leaving it as-is gives it context. If it were not there we might wonder what was going on and the title would seem strange. As shown, it balances the image and explains why the openings are off center.
