Shutters

Most of the elements of this shot fit the brief perfectly and it certainly has a wow factor. Minor quibbles; The finale at the apex of the roof would add rather than distract if it was a bright primary colour. It's a shame that the residential building to the right has crept into the picture!

I can hardly believe that the shot was taken in Kent, UK, and not the Caribbean!

Although the shutters are small in size relative to the whole scene they are perfect for the colourful effect that you were aiming for. Take a tall stepladder with you next time and get square on to the shot! it would add another point or two to see all 4 sides of the red window surround.

Beautifully captured shot where the main element is enhanced by the figure sitting in the window frame. The colours are subdued but very striking. A good example of a grainy appearance adding to the enjoyment of viewing the image. Well done, a worthy winner for me.

This tightly framed shot displays beautiful patina set off perfectly by the deep black background.You obviously have an experienced and sharp eye for the photo possibilities around as you go. My only minor quibble is that two shutters facing each other at the same angle would have made a great shot perfect!

This shot has great impact and the composition is spot on.I particularly like the blend of bright colours, just feel that the blackened areas are a distraction. And has the top of the frame brickwork been enhanced with photoshop or lightroom? The lines look too straight!
