Very nice. I like this contrast between severe geometric patterns and abundance of greenery outside

The opaque white stuff is thin Japanese mulberry paper used in the traditional sliding doors. Round windows are rare in Japan and are more commonly found in China.

With the over bright outside I would have thought more light would be coming through the opaque white stuff. Nice comp though.

The lines and centering of door work really well. The upper left side of the outdoors is a bit distracting for my eye. Yvonne

This photo is beautiful, Julian. I love the framing, the scene, the lines. It looks so inviting. Paty

Very good, I thought I was looking at a painting on a panel at first.
