A great Image Fletch!..and I love the detailing.

It does have though, a distinctly non PR feel to it. [Maybe it's the lighting?....a bit too bright and cheery?]
Im not sure about the water...the house wall colour looks a bit bland and mono-chromatic and the window framing material [repeating on the lintels?] doesnt work too well, in my opinion.

But niggles aside.....Just lovely!!

Very nice job!
2 suggestions perhaps to improve:
Water is much too blue in my point of view.
Concrete texture around the windows is too noticeable...I mean at this distance it should be almost not visible.
I hope to see more about it soon..
Bravo

Thanks Archigrafix :D

interesting thoughts about the water and "concrete"
that's actually limestone (a photo of another limestone lintel.)
clients actually request me to make the water very blue. :roll:

but then, looking at this client's actual house under construction that I took last week... maybe they're right? (also, note the stone frame around the windows.. very typical of almost all buildings around here)

I will agree about the repeating - I guess I should find a better texture for my frames... :totgm:

Ok for the blue water but then it's the quality of the texture: blue gradient must be more subtile. I mean a softer look.
