Thanks to Datha's suggestion, I re-worked the image to remove some light-colored and distracting areas in some of the windows. This one submitted for the monthly theme "Green with Envy". #10065660Kara L. Hendricks March 29, 2012

Wow, Terry, so much commenting on this, here and at 101! I agree with it all, fantastic image, though I didn't get to see the original. I really like that green door! :-) #10065802Dr Silly March 29, 2012

Here's the "original"... #10065880Bob Cournoyer March 29, 2012
Good work in the end...I'm glad you left the shadow on the door, it matches the shadows on the other windows...and the brown in those several windows balance... :-) #10066145Terry A. Stoa March 30, 2012
