Photographer's Note
Most of you knows already that i like the photos of windows, doors and grafities:-) Here seems I had a "three in one" package as all of these objects could be captured in a single shot!
Somewhere in Monastiraki area close to the Flea Market.

Nice photo which is very crisp. Good way of showing off rule of thirds as well :)

Very well seen, George.
Graffities are beautiful and the composition is good, door + window + left graffiti different from the other ones more colourful and similar.
I would crop the upper part to avoid the electric wires.

Another piece of art! Very nice! Maybe I would crop the right part with the half graffiti and some of the upper part.

Interesting diversion from the more common Greek windows and wall - all very neat and painted mostly in blue... This is an interesting one - very colorful and I like your choice of including some of the sidewalk in the front to make it less of a postcard and more real. Well captured!

Gosto muito do enquadramento frontal, reforçando o efeito grafico. As cores e as texturas estão excelentes. Otimo obra George.

Thank God you did not crop the wires. They are also the part of the cultue/daily-life and shows the reality. This is really a good package George.
The texture of the stone road starts the beauty. You caught the colors of the door and the window perfectly. Also a very well composed sharp picture you show us here.
Does the black writing on the left tell us something??
Very natural looking photo George, well done. Thanks for sharing...

Dear George,
You are so lucky to find your three favourite subject together :)You got it really clear so the feeling comes out of the photo.Icluding some of the road is a good decision as the texture becomes a part of the composition i think.I am sure that the one who made these is a big fan of Picasso.

Playing with rectangles to horizontal line as a very sober graphic in contrast to the curves of colored fish art and sign captured within, without this sober graphic indicating the roughness as a sketch where you still could crop out the wiring not part of this strong composition. Nicely spotted George.

Simple and beautiful. The composition is good and the colours are lovely and the contrast is well balanced by the wall. The same white wall works well as a surface and frame for these "artworks"; it's like having a paint on white canvas :)Well captured!

Urban beauty, George? :-) Love the white BG of the wall, increasing the impact of the graffiti colours. Superb light and sharpness allow us to enjoy the composition in full gear. Wonderful capture!

Hi George
You know I saw this already yesterday, and it is still outstanding, I like the justaposition here, especially the middle fish lokking to the left at the Arabic> writing.
I would clone out the wires on top, but maybe crop off, for slightly stronger compo.
Well done.

Pure art: the picture and the subject!
One of the best shot I've seen on TE!

Very well observed and executed George, almost perfect compostion, I should have framed tighter at the top though...
I could have made a WS with only the crop but I think you know how it would be, so I made a version with crop + exagered stronger contrast & brightness. Just for my own pleasure and because your image is so lovely... :o)
PS: Oups! Don't you allow workshops?

Wow, so graphic, so colorful. THis graffiti artist really did a good job to complete the real artist's work. And it is a very good result. Very well seen and captured, George.

The artist here is the tagger, but a good idea from you to catch this one.
This is a very good quality composition, precise and coloured.
Well done
