I would like to live inside a house with coloured windows but I think modern arquitecture doesnt understand of such a poetinc licences... Strange photo, Mohammad, looks like a ghost, but a good one dont worry.

Hi Mohammad,
It's not yout best of this serie, but the red colour in the middle is exactly a fire, I can see the silhouette of the round door with something gray above.
I have very pleasure with these serie Mohammad.
Have a nice weekend,
John.

Different POV of an unseen part of this nice house!
The light is so warm i can feel it!
those lines and shapes in shot make it more attrative and powerful.

Thanx Mohammad

Hi Mohammad,

A good sample of a rich mininmalism in its best. The red spot in the middle catches the eye, with all the dark grey background. My only remark is that you had to straighten the wall on the right. But don't get me wrong, it's a nice work.
Rgrds,
Y.

Hi Mohammad,
An intriguing shot of the house interiur, having much ambience as a result of the shadows and mysterious light emanating from the coloured windows. I really like the intrigue and subtle tones in this shot. Well captured and artistically rendered.

Hi Mohammed,
I hate to see this series come to an end. Hope you have more architectural shots in your kitty. All your shots were very educative about the cultural and architectural heitage of Iran. This one is very good with the reflection of the light through the coloured glass of a window. Nicely seen and caught

Hi Mohammad, missed a lot whilst I've been away. Interesting shot here, I like the way you've made use of the lit up patch of brickwork in the compo.

Mohammad,
Great mood expressed here...I like it very much! This light coming through the window glass somehow reflects the soul of this old house..the door arch is nice and smooth..Thanks for sharing!

Very artistic with the light from the coloured glass, and this framing on the entire "niche".
Its funny looks like a decoration with finishing steps...
very good quality.
Nice "Heritage"
I like it

Hi Mohammad

I like the contrast between the arch & the steps. The ray of orange light on the dark purple is marvellous. Good work!

I looked through the other photos of this series and together with #1 I must say that I prefer this one. They both have a wonderful intimacy and sense of space, a space that surrounds us and keeps a few secrets too.
The light and the shapes and materiality of the staircase are both soft and precise, not the easiest combination but both you and the builder of the staircase had succes with it.

Hello, Mohammad!
It's a very mysterious shot... Your composition really has a spirit! The bounce of red light on the stairs looks like a flame. You have very good sense of observation, Mohammad! Thanks for sharing!
regards,
Greg
