Hello Charo,
A handy place to store your carrots :-) A pleasing composition of this balcony with the lamp off to the left. Some very nice tones and textures captured under a sympathetic light. The carrots are an interesting bonus.

Hi Charo,
Superb composition! Without the lamp it would only look half as interesting, so it was a great choice to include it.
On the thumbnail I thought those were flowers... but now I see that they're not. I don't think I've ever seen someone decorate their balcony with carrots! ;o)
Great shot, thanks for sharing!
Best wishes

Hola Charo.
Estupenda composicion la ventana y farol, las mazorcas de maiz aparte de la originalidad le dan un toque de color muy atrayente, muy buena nitidez para poder apreciar todas las texturas. Una bonita fotografia.
Saludos.

Ciao Charo,
ahahahahahahahahahaha, che colpo!
Sono pannocchie di mais? Non riesco a distinguere bene.
Qualunque cosa esse siano, trovo davvero bizzarro il posto dove esse sono state collocate.
Well done!

Hola Charo,
nice presentation of this medieval balcony with the yellow objects to decorate it.The lamppost on the left is a good detail in the shot.Well done.
Regards,Danos
PS Some friends have written that the yellow objects are carrots.Is this true? Personally I don't think so.

Bonjour, mon amie Charo,
Voilà une composition qui ne manque pas d'originalité, c'est bien la première fois que je vois des épis de maïs décorés le pied d'un balcon.
Force est de reconnaître que l'ensemble ressort magnifiquement avec cette façade en pierre et cette lanterne située à proximité.
Un grand merci également pour les photos présentées en bonus.
Amitiés.

Hi Charo
This a fine shot that is simple but eye catching. The colours in the lamp and window compliment each other and the corn provides a rich and colourful focal point.

Hola mi amiga Charo,
Wonderful, beautiful one my dear friend. I liked splendid beauty there with excellent contrasts, sharpness and clarity. Amazing texture of stone facade, traditional window and small balcony created a fantastic scene in your very well taken photo. Great additions of The Pyrenees's and plane view of old alley. Congratulations.
Saludos cordiales,
Ertugrul

Hola Charo,
Bonita imagen de este balcón.
Los detalles de la fachada se ven muy bien contrastados.
Me gusta el detalle de la farola, así cómo la nota de color de las panochas colgando del balcón.
Un abrazo

Hola, amiga Charo,
la arquitectura medieval de Ainsa es muy interesante, sus viejas piedras lucen muy bien en las fotos, como en este plano cerrado sobre una ventana, su balcón y las mazorcas colgadas, en un toque de color perfecto.
Los Ws son buenos, sobre todo la vista del WS 1 con las montañas aún iluminadas por el sol de la tarde.
Gran trabajo.
Un abrazo para los dos,
Pili y Josep
PS: ayer tuvimos que eutanasiar a nuestro querido perro, ya estaba muy viejecito (15 años y 4 meses), y estamos destrozados. Sentimos un gran vacío, era otro miembro de la família, y se nos hace muy duro. Esperemos que el tiempo cierre esta herida.

hello Charo,
a pleasant domestic scene. I like the colours, light and textures.I especially like the cobs of corn that tell me that this must be a mediterranean country...certainly not the UK!
