You're the pro - but you asked....  :-)

I have no idea how the print looks in person*. As presented on the web, 
it doesn't wow me. All a matter of taste, of course 
<http://moosemystic.net/Gallery/Others/Crawford/cigarette-machine.htm>.

I like the bit more shadow detail brought up in the window. I especially 
like the separation of the shadows of the pull handles from their 
background, that area just comes alive for me. The slightly lighter face 
of the machine highlights the scratches in the finish in a way I like. I 
also let the wood and stucco come up just the tiniest bit, to my taste.

Love the capture, by the way. :-)

* I just printed what may be my Vernal Equinox Photo Exchange print. It 
makes me despair of properly presenting images on the web. Sure, the 
image looks good on the web, but....... not like that!
