Tonight I tried an experiment and photographed from outside the pub looking inward. I found the effect very interesting.
Lessons Learned:
- Gary makes a great subject for photography, and is always a willing participant. Thank you Gary, and Tom.

Cool effect, great focus, and great conversion to monochrome! Awesome work!
I love the shot, but...
the guy on the left (Gary?) creeps me out a bit the way he's peering so intently out the window at the viewer.
Or maybe I shouldn't have watched the hour long news show about a creepy guy abducting a girl right before I went to bed!
At any rate, I reacted almost viscerally to the photo, so well done!
This is a fun and clever shot! I like the way you focused on the window, and left the people out of focus. They look as if they are in another beer dimension :)
lol, that's out of character for Gary. I think it's the cloudiness of the window that makes him appear that way.
I love this. That's a great old window.
I liked that effect, and you obviously know where to place your lines and crossings.
The outside view is pleasantly mysterious
good Lord I am the least creepy guy on earth, but I WAS acting for the camera...Stevo, nothing wrong with color but you are a MASTER with black and white :)
Love the idea! Very ... kind of romantic for me
Liked the black-and-white effect a lot! Kind of pic that tends to take us back a number of years...
Here from Carmi's blog.
Great use of contrast with your sharply defined windows and slightly out of focus faces. The old windows add great character to the shot. I tried a similiar shot but at a nursing home with residents inside watching the traffic go by, but was unable to pull off the shot before I was noticed. Good idea to practice with freinds first. Johnina :^D
I love this photo in black & white. Looking from the outside in is so cool.
I've enjoyed your work over on Gary's blog and am happy to see you at Carmi's TP as well. Great shot! (And I know for a fact that Gary is not creepy -- I was brave enough to bring my entire family to visit last summer.)
Great shot.
Great image with that captures a moment in time. If the backstory was not included...the imagination could go a lot of places with this. Black and white is just right for this.
