So happy people really value these homes and do take care of them. They are truly beautiful. Wonderful picture. Love the angle that you took the photo. Gives a great DOF. Very clear and well focused. Thank you so much for sharing and best of luck in the contest. :)

Comment from Life is but a dream.


Ahh this really gives a soothing feeling to the viewer. Not only is it interesting (the building) but the way you have composed it is eye candy. The iron fence in a diagonal, the sky in the corner giving reason as to why the sidewalk is wet.

The photo has a spring like feel to it...the tree has no leaves or buds (yet) but the grass is green and in the distance there is life in the blooming of distant trees.

I like the rocker on the porch, it speaks of love and care put into this home by the owners.

Please check the side of the house....does it tilt a bit to the left...just a bit.

Compositionally I would not have minded to see more of the house, even in vertical format...I hunger to see more.

As far as your technical aspects are concerned the exposure, contrast and post processing have given a sharp and interesting image.

I would not mind walking down this street with you!

    I will look at this one again in the morning. I have another one to post of a Victorian of the same design for another contest. Stay tuned. :)

It's obvious that this is a well cared for house. The flowering white and pink in the bottom right are very pretty and the iron fence gives a nice anchor. I wish the tree at the left was either leafy green or non-existent. Not your fault, of course, but it detracts from the home's beauty because the tree looks unkempt. Maybe if you had stood in a different spot, the house would have been presented in a more graceful manner.

A beautiful home. I love how well-kept the lawn looks. I wish I were living there. It's lovely. But I bet it takes most of the day to maintain it.

This is interesting. Creative in presenting urbanism by capturing ang singling out part this beautiful architecture. The image is clear and clean. Perspective built by the fence is enjoyable.

Well done and thanks for sharing.

Artist,

Now you have me and my husband wondering just what town you took this in. If you mentioned that, perhaps you would give yourself away. Unlike the writing site, it is refreshing to see someone really attempting to place a blind entry.

This is an absolutely gorgeous street view of this old Victorian home in what looks like pristine condition with love Spring blooms at its side.

Linda

Comment from Kbanich


I really like the colors and perspective captured in this image. The fence offers a nice dominant leading line and accentuates the gray tones seen in the sky and building. Very well done with spot on camera techniques that deliver a well thought through composition supported by clarity and deep DOF. Way to Go! Kathy
