    I remember seeing (and loving) another version of this, but I can't find the original so I can't remember what was different about it. But different or same, it's still gorgeous!

    Oooo... this is lovely! I was trying to grow some hanging plants from my balcony to create colour and greenery on the white walls, but no success.

    The vibrant colors are so full of newness and life against what appears to be a very old and plain looking structure! Interesting!

    love the contrast between the blue door and the red-colored vines... and with this kind of wall, it sure brings out the bucolic charm of the place:)

    Love that purple color on top - what kind of plant is it? And the blue door is nice too.

    I had to laugh at Rambling's compliment to my memory. It's really not as good as all that, but this is a truly memorable shot that couldn't escape even me!

    How lovely those are - are they grapevines? I've never seen them look that way. Very intriguing photo.

    I'm not sure exactly what they are, I've never seen pink vines that those. They do look a lot like grapes though.
