Photographer’s Note
Another view of the old neighbourhood near the castle of Tossa de Mar. As far as I remember, this window lies in the wall that appears partially on the right of this WS of my previous post of this little town.
WS's: Views of the city walls near this house [1, 2].

PS: These last days I feel like posting daily. Maybe I should be more selective, but I have never been good on deciding which are my best or worthiest photos, so I feel can't really opt for quality over quantity like so many of our fellows do. I often restrain myself from posting so often because I can't catch up with the critiques received. Please don't feel obliged to critique or comment all of my posts and forgive me if I can't retribute some of your critiques.

Hello Jose -
This is a very pleasing image..."so European." The technical detail as well as the composition are right on the money. I do like the nice reflection as it gives the scene depth and I think the offset of the window from dead center was the perfect choice. Well seen and presented.
Thank you for sharing.

Oi José,
Que simpática janela, com plantinhas lindas, uma decoração muito agradável. O reflexo na janela nos dá o complemento espacial perfeito, conjugado com o WS indicado (do post anterior) - muito interessante!
No WS#1, a nitidez é tanta que vi ali crianças (grandotas) brincado de "esconde-esconde"... E aí eu fiquei brincando de achar as pessoas ;-)
Abraço,
Docarmo

Absolutely beautiful. Tranquil, but enlivened by the sunny reflection. Pleasing asymmetry, variety of plants, contrast of window colour with old stone. Congratulations to photographer and householder!
Kind regards, Winifred

Hola Jose,
una fotografía de gran calidad, muy buena composición y colores de unos de los pueblos de la Costa Brava que más han sabido conservar sus edificios antiguos. Felicidades!
Un saludo,

Hola Jose:
Sencilla pero demasiado agradable, una composición sin igual, con los elementos bien situados en el encuadre.
Las tonalidades contrastan de maravilla. Sin duda, una escena muy atrayente y refrescante. Excelente amigo mio.
Especial saludo desde Colombia, John

Hello Jose, it looks like the windows that I saw in Monsanto. The façade of the house is almost the same. The red flowers add a different taste to your composition. I even see some jasmines which I enjoy to smell. The ones in the WS gives an overall idea about the town. If it was near to Portugal, I would go there by car:)
Best regards, Tolga

Olá José,
Uma janela bem apanhada. Estas janelas, especialmente nestes ambientes, despertam sempre atenção. O que acho curioso nesta é estar entreaberta.
Cumprimentos,
Francisco

Olá José!
Esta fotografia está belíssima!
Um ponto de vista muito bem escolhido, uma composição simples, mas verdadeiramente eficiente no sentido de transformar uma simples janela numa obra de arte! Nitidez, exposição e cores estão excelentes e muito apropriadas à imagem! Gosto muito dos detalhes da parede, das plantas que a enfeitam e do reflexo num dos vidros da janela, além da cortina ao fundo!
Parabéns, abraços e até outra hora!

Bonjour Jose,
composition toute simple mais techniquement parfaite, bien colorée et ces plantes qui raffraichissent la chaleur des teintes des pierres.
Bien cadré.
Amicalement.
Daniel.

re bonjour,
un détail de façade qui a beaucoup de charme, la reflection dans la vitre éclaire discrètement la photo et lui donne un peu de "peps".

Salut José
Une magnifique fenêtre qui fera pâlir de jalousie un certain Bill Gates.
Les couleurs et le cadrage sont très appréciables.

It looks like a window of Provence, charming feel of good things and calm life, other than a beautiful old house and window, well seen and done Jose.

Hello José,
For some reason I had noticed your photo of the other window from Tossa del Mar, but not this one, which is a an enchanting and well caught photo. Beautiful and sharp details, good colours and a pleasant tranquil impression. TFS!
Greetings,
