I agree, the stariway really sets off this photo with an effect that seems to draw you into it. Nice perspective.

In fact I have never lived in this house. It was built in 1912 and has an ecletic architecture. It was abandoned for many decades and was recently rebuilt and restaured into a cultural center. It's called Figner House. When I was a child, I used to play in their garden, it was very close to my place. That's why I named my pic "My old sweet home". Thank you very much for your criticism and comments.

Is it just me, or does it look like Santa Claus in the reflection of the bubble that is in the center and slightly to the right. Weird! I must be anxious for Christmas to get here.

Congratulations on your ribbon! This is a wonderful shot and only one of two that I gave a 10 to. Their is much here for the eye to feast on...the shapes, tones and architecture are all very interesting to look at and the focus and exposure are right on. Also, I think your use of this style and color border adds alot of class to an already very classy photo. Much luck in future challenges, although I don't really think you need it.

What a great picture. I've given very few 10's in this challenge but this one certainly deserves it!!!

If this is your home then I'm after an invite. Great shot with superb lighting, composition and use of sepia which adds much atmosphere. The shapes created by this position are very aesthetically pleasing.
