Hello Abmdsudi, the bright red doors stand out in the thumbnails, and I like the composition with the door decorations off centre in the frame.
The workshop picture puts the doors into context, but the main post has the greater impact.
A lovely pair of pictures.
Kind regards, Jean.

Hello Abmdsudi,
The red colour of the doors is really beautiful and you captured the textures very well along with the nice play of light and shadows. The two large door knockers are well included too and placed on the right hand side of the composition.

Hello Amdsudi,

Missed this one. Nice symmetry of the 2 bronze door knockers, and I like the lion design. Good sharpness and the red colour is appropriate for China. Tfs!
