Crop the Window. Convert to Black and White. Color one window pane green and one blue. Use the Feedback effect in Paint Shop Pro. Sharpen a bit. Colorise the siding orange. That's it. Probably won't do too well with the purists, but I had a fun time experimenting.

A visit from the critique club :)

First, I was going to ask about the editing but then I remembered that this is a free challenge.

I like it, it's definitely something I would have liked to try for a windows/doors challenge. The first thing that jumps at me is the odd distortion on the lines. Looks like you didn't get this photo straight on.
I definitely love the colors. They are perfectly balanced. Not too bright, not too dark, complimentary to each other. I would perhaps try to crop off the orange just for kicks to see what kind of an image you get from that.

Thanks for pointing out the different colour of shutters. This pic was a rush job. I had originally coloured the shutter blue and green (like the windows). Didn't like so I converted to B&W and started painting the photo. Never got around to painting the shutters. Lol. Gotta start paying attention. Nonetheless, I'm just amazed that I got over 5. Thanks for the comments.

Very cool work! I would have preferred that the left side be as dark as the right side - I like the contrast and impact of the darker side better.

As John Cleese would say, "And now for something different"
Nice shot and good touch here.

Great concept and good PS skills. Definitely unique. The different colors on each side of the window is a great touch. I really, really wish the color of the house were different though. Perhaps a brighter color to match the other colors involved. Great job though - Inspzil

Cool use of image manipulation, simple but dramatic.

Interesting idea. I'm curious why you chose the colors you did in the windows and why the left shutter is so much lighter and angled than the right.

This is a very unique photograph. It makes it look like you are looking into many different little maze-looking windows.

I find the different shades of the outside shutters distracting.
