Beautiful!
I really love this one, so clear and intriguing, like an open door to the half-forgotten teen-age (which, like your room after you've moved out, seems to be strangely foreign but still, in a sense, yours).
(And if I love somebody now like I used to love when I was a teenager, if I flicker the light - would he understand, would he flicker back or maybe he doesn't look out that window anymore?)

Flickering Lights
I intend to print and frame this one. It's a "keeper". Okay?
