I’ve taken a picture of this blue door before (see first picture in: Cold Spring in Color).

I think this is a better picture though. I love the colors. Blue is my favorite color and I find this particular shade to be very attractive. But then you also have the more muted blue of the bench of the left. There are also greens in the wreath, and yellows in the daffodils and the dandelion by the curb. And of course the bright reds of the curtains and the hanging lamp.

Lots of bright colors, but then there are also earthtones: the subdued reds of the lintel, the bricks and the stones in front of the door; the tan window frames and wall; the browns of the planters.

I also liked the textures of the wall, the bricks, the sidewalk and the road and the dappled sunlight filtering across everything.

It all felt very Spring-like and cheerful.
