I agree! how this stands out, with the clarity the BLUE has, and the walls seem muddy and soft it adds tremendous contrasts Tricia! So glad to see you posting again! Love the drama here!

Hi, Tricia,
that is a stark contrast against the earthen tones of the wall. I like that shade of blue and they are in an excellent spot in the composition. I also like the bit of angle above them from the roof. (Odd, too, I just posted a pic called RED, and then saw it was by your BLUE) :)) I like that shot. Many thanks and kindest wishes,
Shelly

Hi Tricia

Know the feelng about not being happy with a shot, posted an older shot that I was not happy with today.
Like your composition of this with slope of the roof above these windows.
I may have darkened the roof tiles at the top corner as these are quite bright and modern in apperance compared with the rest of the building.
TFS

Regards Derek

Hi Tricia,

A wonderful idea coupled with colorful side of the life!
The sharpness and POv are just great, bringing great contrast between the blue windows and the rest of the dull colored wall. Wow, I appreciate your way of observing the things...well done!

thanks and regards,
Paras Bhalla

PS: I am sorry as I have already crossed my daily point-limit for today, otherwise I would love to award a smiley for this nice work.

its kind of cool, i would of just had more of a tighter crop with the windows in the 1/3rds, however its a neat shot wool cool colors and textures,
and you also enjoy the day

Without seeing the original shot it's hard to know how well you have done in presenting it - this may be a great save from a rough original, or it may be a degradation of a beautifully clean shot ...?

I think the composition (via camera or crop) is great and the blue windows really stand out. Probably the biggest issue is resolution - detail and sharpness - which seems to have been lost either through crop, or post-treatment.

Overall though I like the impact and aesthetic of this shot, so don't be too hard on yourself!
