062/365 -LIC Broken Window

I flagged this image as a ‘rejected’ and two seconds after I went back and asked to myself "If this was the only picture that you have, what would you do it to save it?".. Then I un-flagged it and after a couple of clicks in Ligthroom I ended up with this. After all the pictures that I took yesterday I decided to go with this one.
