I like the sky blue of the window panes together with the worn look of the building. The 220 gives it a setting, a place, or as you say in your caption, a building which was constructed by someone older than the person who threw the ball or rock into the pane.

I really like this. That broken window goes right along with the peeling paint. I like the transparent theme one above this one too.

I told you to take that ball to the park. ;)

So many interesting details that I can imagine my own story about the image.

I love the textures and colors here. That building definitely has some stories. Nice work!

I love the peeling paint. In fact, there isn't anything about this shot that I don't like.

..... and all I could find, in a busy week, was a box....!

I like the picture. Very nice.

Nukke said...

A broken detail. It would be interesting to see the whole house.
But the worn white colour is nice :)

Everybody's initial thought is a baseball, I'm sure ... wonder why mine is a rock? Maybe cuz the glass is blue? ;)

Luv the delapidated paint job with this ...

I like all the texture to this one.

The crumbling paint, the blue of the sky reflected...very painterly. Gorgeous. Beautifully composed, too.
I guess you could say I like this picture a lot. :-)

Perfectly composed and you gave it great meaning.
