Default Windows

I'm looking for some general comments and critique for this shot. I'm not at all sure if I like it or not. Do you think it would be made better by cropping two separate images from it, one for each of the windows? There is actually wonderful irony in the shot but only if you know that they are looking out on a festival and parade and a very fun event.

Thanks to all who look and for the time and thought of anybody who comments.

Here's the uncropped image. Also slightly brighter. It really doesn't provide much more space around the windows except for below them.

yes, more space around the windows, adjust contrast of the windows and correct the perspective distortion of the windows.

Thanks, edbayani. Good suggestions all. I hadn't really taken much note of the perspective distortion. I'll see what I can do about that.
