I liked the atmosphere as well. :) Although it was a bit too wet and slushy. To some photos the little blur and softness caused by snowfall suits, to some others not so well... The drainpipe, i think it is metal - maybe tin, maybe something else.
It's nice to read your observations. *

the fence, reminds me of school. we broke so many windows.....uhm. i like the snow-flake atmosphere. and the brick, contrasts with w o o d. its a nice, warm red. and of course the lantern cannot be missed. there are so many d e t a i l s. the drain pipe-- it is metal? near the bottom, near the opening of it, just abouve looks like a dent. here most drain pipes are plastic. older building have metal....uhm. that drain pipe looks like it might be something like tin. and left hand side. the brick-ridges are common here. i like them, especially with different coloured bricks.
