Hello Rui,
Voilà une architecture étonnante et très simple. Le creusement du trottoir face à la porte est original !
Bon point de vue et cadrage !
Bien à toi,
Robert

Olá Rui,
Bem apanhada esta. É curioso que a parte de baixo parece-me das casas antigas, mas a parte de cima parece-me um acrescento. Mas com a pintura como que uniformizou tudo, ficando ainda assim meio esquisito.
Com estas cores tão vivas, tão frescas, será que o dono entrou naquele programa de embelezamento das casas? (que te falei noutra resposta; acho que foi no comentário ao travelogue).

Hi Rui,

An excellent shot. Beautiful architecture by simple means and wonderful colours. You have done a really great job with this picture and in partcular I enjoy the shadows of the tree.

Cheers,

Ulf

Olá Rui,
Uma bela compo, pela geometria e pelas cores, a fazer lembrar as pinturas do Mondrian. Além da casa, gosto das sombras, principalmente daquele tronco.
Um abraço, José.
