Quirky and original, well spotted.

Personally, I'd crop the crown and small ledge from the top and bottom to throw more attention on the reflection.

Hi Russ, I did try the crop as you suggested, but with me not being square on to the window it didn't look right. You can probably do something in pp, but I'm not that clever. Thank you for the nice comment and suggestion, always appreciated.

Steve

Very good. I presume the distortion is due to come kind of bomb-proofing covering the original windows.

As has been said - well spotted - and well photographed.

The glass is likely to be the original. It was simply flowed out onto a polished sheet and left to solidify which results in these huge distortions. Normally it gets cut into much smaller pieces so you don't see the effect like it is here. Big sheets like this were mega expensive - but hey - it's the Albert Hall !
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass
