This 1906 house on Jackson Ave. has an especially pleasing color palette, I think, particularly in combination with the lawn and brick steps.

A picture a day of the town of Lexington, Virginia
Beautiful Lexington, Virginia:
A town of 7,000 in the Shenandoah Valley -- home to Washington and Lee University and the Virginia Military Institute; resting place of Civil War generals Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson; and at the center of one of the prettiest counties in Virginia: Rockbridge County.

I can but agree!
I like the full frontal shot, which leads one from the orangey red bricks to the shutters and door of the same color.
The color is pleasing...made especially so by your photograph which catches the light perfectly.
Good job!
I would love to live in a house like this. I love those red shutters, very unusual here...!
