All sorts of things happen in the Attic 
The book is an old Grimm's Fairytales..circa 1903 that I found at my Mum's.It has a beautiful cover & lots of nice textures in the old pages.
Thanks for dropping by.

Super image, love the feel of it and the resonance of the idea. Top Award.
Lovely composition & lighting - and as a former childrens' librarian I keep trying to i.d. the illustrator!
Helen.
Thanks everyone for your votes & comments.
Special thanks to Stuart for your UA & Helen for the GEA,both very much appreciated.
Willie...I tried in vain to get Big Ted to look into the book but he wouldn't have it...he said he knew the story off by heart & didn't need to read it from the book
Helen,the illustrator is Helen Stratton,so not one of the very valuable editions,still, it's value to me is of course priceless !

Thanks everyone.
Quote: Santa and his sleigh in the sky would be so much better don't you think?
Maybe so,but,Santa flies far too high at this time of year Dave,keeping watch on everyone to see if they are naughty or nice...hmmmmmmmmm
The buildings were better than a blank window though.

I love it Janet, I do agree with Dave re the rooftops. Now this would look good very muted, almost mono, giving it a very different feel. What about a scratched texture on the window, with a menacing face looking in? - or what about a satanic looking doll on the outside looking in.
Cheers Nick,I think the idea of the scratchy texture might work,not sure I wanna go down the 'menacing face/satanic doll route though .
Muted ??? I do hope you aren't trying to get me into the world of mono,you know it's so not my strongest genre 
I'll see..........
