I've already discarded more ideas than I've taken photos this week!
But still more keep bubbling up, and I haven't even been out with the camera since I put the theme up.

I had to 'step back' and look again, before I recognised it. (It's still early morning!) But then, yes, I did realise what it was and it would qualify. In two ways even; as a door and with the windows of the house opposite visible.

I you could manage to capture something more interesting through the spyhole, it could be a nice shot. Mind you, it does not immediately 'jump' at you, so people might lose interest before they take a second look. Or, they might be intrigued and peer a little closer.

It's difficult/ impossible, to predict how people react to a photograph!

I had to do a double take, but I have to do that very often, as I simply don't see detail immediately.

I hope to get an 'in your face' window shot, but then again, I have changed my mind so often already, that I'm not sure what I'll end up with.

The windows won't be smashing in your face, it's plate glass! Might smash your face in though, but only if you're very tall or a real high jumper.

They're windows to the world of travel. That particular company has opened the doors to world travel for a lot of people, and closed mine because of the size, shape and ugliness (personal opinion, but I'm not alone in this!) of their preferred 'modes of transport.'

I'll leave it at this for the time being and will go out soon, to see if I can photograph said windows in this (low) light. Very murky here at the moment! Don't even have to look out of the window to notice it, it's virtually dark indoors!
