title: TypeScript: access class in global module/namespace
body: <p>I've got the following situation:</p>
  
  <pre><code>module MyModule {
      export class Image {
          ...
      }
  
      var image = Image(); // returns an instance of MyModule.Image
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, I want to create an instance of HTMLImageElement, not MyModule.Image. How do I specify that I want to instantiate a class which resides in the global module/namespace?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you!</p>
