Pretty variations of red. Simple and majestic.

Very lovely. A tiny bit more sharpness and definition may have made it sparkle even more

I will have to agree with Alenka that a little more sharpness would be good...but...
What first caught my eye were the rich colors enhanced by the setting sun, and then the great use of shadows and the `blues` reflecting in such a nice balance from the windowpanes. The curves of the arches replicated by the tiles on the roof against the vertical/horizontals of the bricks and windows is lovely.

you know what my view of this building is by now
only here you have opted for even some more red – the leaves – to emphasise the much-too-much kind of feeling one is subjected to when discovering the architectural mess
what is it anyway
i first thought it was a factory
now my suspicions have developed around the idea of one of those churches god cannot stand watching but at the same time cannot crush down for one reason or another – no lightning strong enough at hand or never a proper time for striking it with one (somebody always in – one person at least always in...) no arsonist inventive (what could make brickwork burn) and bold enough no earthquakes in the region no developer eaten by desire to have condominiums or a hotel or –

this calls for a quotation that goes like this

`The most accomplished monkey cannot draw a monkey, this too only man can do; just as it is also only man who regards this as his merit.`
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg (1742–1799)
