#2 is the winner in this set, the shallow dof giving it, well, some depth. As to your three versions of the window/reflection, I have a strong preference for the first because the vertical piece of the awning(?) adds a nice break to the uniform framing in the others and the bit of signage in the upper left adds a very nice supporting detail element for the eye to collect after seeing the main subject.

Thanks Roger! I think you have exactly found the right words to describe my feelings about the window/reflection shot. Still like my original post most.

Fred,
On reflection 😀 I agree. Your original version works best.

For me the brickstones frame #7 and they are a necessary ingredient to make it a special picture - but that's only my opinion.
I have to second that, without the bricks there's definitely something missing.
