Don't know what you did differently, but I love this one too!!!! FAVORITE!!! #8460713

Mitch Spence level-classic March 18, 2010

The textures here are lovely, as are the colors, and as is the comp. The things that are so appealing to me are the icy colors of the plants against the warm wall tones, the off centered plants, and the little window, there by itself. Nice. #8464342

Carol Teal March 23, 2010

I love the color, texture and roundness of the bushes. That is such a cool window! Most of the time, we don't center things, but this time it works for me much better than the first version. In the first version, my eye goes straight to the big bush, but in this version, my eye goes straight to the window. #8474283

Colleen Farrell March 23, 2010
