I guess you might be… one of those lovers of windows and doors? So many of us bloggers are fascinated by – doors and windows. But, not only the window itself is special and worthy of acknowledgement, I think also what/who is standing or sitting by or at the window is important. Maybe you find an interesting something standing or hanging in the window…or perhaps seen through the window!
For this week – Find a favorite window and show us your special choice!
For some years now, I have been fascinated by Poland, and I have found many interesting windows there – I guess they all have…that little story I am looking for:
We are all prisoners, but some of us are in cells with windows and some without.
A breeze, a forgotten summer, a smile, all can fit into a storefront window.
There is a window from one heart to another heart.
The windows of the houses, even if the house is ramshackle, are always beautiful because windows represent light!
It is not possible for a house to own a spirit without owning windows with flowers!
You have the nicest window, you know? None of the others can even compete. It´s not flashy like the others, or bleary, your window gives of this nice, quiet light.
Enlarge your windows till you get a window where you can see the whole universe with one look!
And – HAVE YOU SEEN THESE?
There were many interesting responses to Patti’s challenge last week. Thanks to all who participated!
Debbie of Travel with Intent shows us an interesting juxtaposition.
Ken of anevolvinscientist sent us a rare and giant flower, for which we really have to look up!
Click This TAPG shares a dizzying shot making you definitely look up!
Amy will post the next challenge on Saturday, October 13th at noon. For more information on how to join the Lens-Artists Photo Challenges, click here for details. Most importantly, remember to TAG your post “Lens-Artists ” so it appears in the Reader.
Wishing you all an inspiring week!

This is a wonderful post and photos! Your quotes are really fantastic, I am a huge fan of Khalil Gibran and Rumi. And I learned about new names here. Thank you. Blessings, Debbie
Thank you so much, Debbie. A joy for me to hear!
🙂
Very beautiful post 🙂 I’m also obsessed with windows, the most with my own kitchen window which has the most beautiful view on our town’s little river and the historic town centre. But to me windows in general represent not only light but a frame for a little part of the outside world.
Thank you – and I agree, windows act as frames as well.
Great tour!
Glad to know that, very nice place to stop.
If you are passing there…do stop by and enjoy this friendly and artsy city!
Great photos! 😀
Thank you – there is much to see in Lodz!
😀
Ann-Christine, what unique pictures of windows! Really enjoyed looking at these, especially the one with the artwork around the window and also the cat looking out. Here is my blog on windows: https://mycolorfulexpressions.com/2018/10/13/lens-artists-photo-challenge-windows/
So glad you liked them – and welcome joining in!

Compared with your marvellous windows, mine are a touch rustic 🙂 https://tishfarrell.com/2018/10/11/a-gate-post-eyes-view-in-derbyshire/
We love rustic, Tish – and these ones also hide a mystery…hopefully to be solved by some blogger!
I think Swarn who commented after you has given us some clues 🙂

I love your first photo; it’s like looking at a book with five different stories all going on simultaneously, so intriguing!
I admit I like that one – so glad you like it too!

I really like the little stories connected to each artsy shot here.
🙂
and my favorite – image and quote was this:
You have the nicest window, you know? None of the others can even compete. It´s not flashy like the others, or bleary, your window gives of this nice, quiet light.
Banana Yoshimoto
Thank you – that is a favorite of mine as well. The only one from the archives.
and I also wanted to add that I enjoyed the feast of pictures. I know there is a time for one image – but your richness here had me come back to soak up more.
and someone teasingly told me that i had a lot of windows in my post (called it a vast collection and wanted to know if you gave an award for ”most”) and I told them you had 12 pics and so I was not even a runner up –
but I am glad there are no rules how many or how few we can share – need to let it flow when it flows
” – need to let it flow when it flows”. I like that. I did not intend to post that many windows…but your last half sentence shows what it is all about. So glad you enjoy the concept!

Some wonderful choices here Ann-Christine! Loved the window with the lamppost worker as well as the one with the wall art surrounding it!
Thank you, Tina! Many to choose from this week – and hopefully many to inspire for new window stories!

That’s a wonderful assortment of windows, Ann-Christine! I love the ones with the little fence and the kitty, and the featured picture reminds me of display cases 🙂 and makes me imagine the stories of the people inside.
How great that you enjoyed them! And I am happy you imagine stories – looking forward to some windows from you!
What a great selection of window photos! I loved the one that also shows a gas-lighter man on a ladder.
So glad you liked them – and the man on the ladder I love too! I hope to see some more interesting windows coming during the week!

Love your creative windows, Ann-Christine. The indoor light with the orange curtains and kitty cat is especially pleasing. 🙂
I am happy you like them, Jane. I too am especially fond of that cat in the window-shot. That is the only one I have used before.
Love the great clicks and great quotes ,appropriate to the coresponding shots. Great job indeed ! A treat to my eyes.Thank you
Thank you so much! I am glad you enjoyed them – hopefully inspiring!

Thank you, Robert! I liked it very much – my comments are on your blog!
I was going to pick a few that really caught my eye, but the list kept getting longer and longer. I did really like that first shot.

Janet – when it comes to windows there are so many choices. Maybe I could not stop myself…but my favorite is that first one as well – glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you, Debbie! I hope they will be inspiring for the challenge!
They did: though this time I’ve gone for the light on the window, reflected and seeping through. https://travelwithintent.com/2018/10/07/london-bride-lane-outside-crown-and-sugar-loaf-pub/
I love this one, Debbie – the reflected light at the end of the day. The sweeper also adds to the feeling!

Thank you, Amy – thought to inspire!
You have a beautiful and varied assortment of windows, Ann-Christine!
This should be a fun topic for people.
Thank you – I hope you are right. Looking forward to interesting windows!
Great windows!
Happy you like them! Now I am looking forward to more interesting windows for the challenge!
I know i have some somewhere!
I think you most certainly have!
Beautiful, Ann-Christine!! Thanks for such an inspiring post and theme.
I am glad you find it inspiring! Always looking forward to your take on!
Hi, Ann-Christine. I’m posting a bit late. This week was a bit crazy with moving and then traveling! You’re right. There are always stories that go along with the photos of windows! https://pilotfishblog.com/2018/10/07/lens-artists-photo-challenge-14-windows/
Thank you for posting despite everything being busy! A great post with gorgeous shots, as usual. I love your stories even if moving to me rings a bit melancholic. My poles are steadfast.
Leya I will comment on your photos later. Regarding the theme – at this point I have no clue so I will have to look through my thoughts to find something this 7 day window of opportunity offers.
Abrie, I am sure you will find some clues when you look through your thoughts – or maybe some thoughts when you have figured out the clues…Looking forward to your thoughts on screen.
A great subject for this week’s challenge, Ann-Christine! And you have a fine selection of images to illustrate the topic.
I hope it will be an inspiring subject! Thank you!
Some eye-catching windows revealing many stories captured of the moment. That first one was so stunning, Leya. ❤
Olga – now I am happy you liked them – and hoping for new windows, maybe with stories as well!
This is an remarkable collection of interesting windows and great accompanying quotes, Ann-Christine. The first one is a gem, I can’t take me eyes off it. It has a good story.
Thank you so much, Dina! I am glad you like the windows and their stories! Poland is indeed a remarkable chest of treasures…
Beautiful photos and quotes that inspire!
I am glad if they can inspire to send us more windows – and perhaps stories?
Yes. I hope I can.
I am looking forward to it!
Join me in the comments of sue, great pictures.
Greeting Robert
Thank you, Robert! Looking forward to your choice!
Really awesome photos, Leya! There are so many stories to be told thru windows.
Thank you – yes, aren’t there? I like to fantasize about who, what, how aso!
You’ve shown us some great windows and some ‘life-behind-the-window’ scenes, A C!
Thank you, Sue! now I am hoping for some more windows and stories!
Your own, or for the challenge?
Hehe, for the challenge of course!
Well, I hope you will like what I post, and who knows, I might get a mention!
I always look forward to your postings, Sue!
😊😊 but not many get mentioned the following week!
True, but two or three is the number!
I know, just teasing!
