Hi everyone, first I'd like to apologize for not being around much. Skating Competition, then for the past 4 days all we've been doing is Shoveling Shoveling and more Shoveling, so sick of this white stuff. We have a lot more snow now then in the past 4 years, unbelievable.

Now for this image I captured it in New York City (2014, Aug) of this interesting building with all those windows. Sure would not like to have to wash those, lol.

Thought this might work for the current contest called: "Windows", let me know what you think please.

Did selective colouring to make the background in tones of greys and black using Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and also cropped it some on each side. After that I used iPiccy.com to resize it.

Thank you so much for your patience, friendship and comments most welcomed. Hope to try and do some commenting today.

Have a good day and stay warm if you live in the North.

Happy Valentine's Day,

Skates

Forgive me folks I'm exhausted from shoveling 4 hours this morning, I'll be back tomorrow, but I'll be shovelling again.

I think if I was standing at street level looking up, I would get a pane in my neck. You certainly are showing a lot of enthusiasm for the "windows" contest." I think there are more windows in your entree than in all of the rest of the contestants combined. lol. Pat, best wishes, you got a good one with this entree.

There are more than enough windows here Pat. This will make a good entry I am sure.

A great contest entry. The windows are so unusual and you did a great job of editing.

My sincere snow sympathies. It's so much prettier when you are standing inside, sipping a cup of coffee, watching it fall. Not so much from behind a shovel. I know!

Did you outline the structure? It looks like art to me. Like a panel in a graphic novel. Kind of a neat effect!

If there was an 'Architects Gone Wild' show, the designer of this building would be a worthy contestant! This photo needs to be viewed full sized to be fully appreciated. Well done!

---Sure would not like to have to wash those, lol.---

Pat, referring to your time consuming (and tiring) shoveling, I like to say when it was your property, there wasn't any time left for being on Caedes.
The advice of my late father (reading: "If you can't do your activities during the 24 hours of a day, you have to continue these activities at night.") wouldn't be that helpful, ☺ .

Good entry however! Good Luck with it, my friend.
