Guten Tag Achim

A superb colour contrast, between the red roof of the buoding, & the blue sky. Good sharpness, colour & lighting. Well done!

Hello Achim,
Very nice dwelling ... tall, narrow, and many floors. The train painting surely depicts the profession of the former owner. Impressive & striking white wall giving a good contrast to the overall saturated colors. Pleasing view on the garden & surrounding vegetation. Best Regards. Latiff.

Hallo Achim,
inhaltlich nicht mein Fall aber top Qualität mit der Klarheit und Schärfe, reizvoller Kontrast vom Dach zum Himmel. Auch das Weiß des Obergeschosses hat Struktur. Mit der hübschen Eisenbahn (kein Zoom?) ist auch ein reizvolles Obejkt dabei.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Hallo Achim. Als ich das Thumbnail sah dachte ich, ah, ein kleines Häuschen. Aber es war mir klar, dass es mit dem Haus eine besondere Bewandnis haben muss. Und nun ist es klar, es ist ein altes Bahnwärterhäuschen; und der Wandschmuck verrät das auch. Der jetzige Besitzer hat eine Idylle aus dem Anwesen gemacht. Ich kann nur staunen, was die TE-Member an sehenswerten Motiven entdecken. Ich selber wäre vermutlich an einem solchen Motiv achtlos vorbeigegangen. Aber es ist tatsächlich ein sehenswertes Zeitdokument. Sehr schön. Viele Grüße, wolfgang.

Hi Achim,
Lovely clear crisp contrasting colors. Lovely the painting of the railroad engine against the whitewashed old home. Beautiful sky and lush green yard.
Regards, Tom

Bonjour Achim,
un endroit classique mais avec beaucoup de charme.
Relevé par des couleurs fortes et variées, des lumières bien maitrisées.
Je crois que j'aurais cadré un peu plus à droite.
Regards.
Daniel.

Hi Achim. It seems even the most historic and quaint houses have a satellite dish on the side these days. Wonderful capture. Excellent colours and fine details. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.

Hi Achim,

The point of view leads our eyes to the red roof of the house. The garden is a natural frame to the house. The details and colors of the architecture of the house are clear and precise. The light brings out the colors. Have a nice day.
