Windows can be open, closed, big or small — a simple opening in the wall that lets us discover a whole new world and touches our senses. Windows also show the unique personalities of the people decorating them: the weather outside, an everyday landscape or outstanding one. You made us perceive the world differently by showing us your amazing photos. Lean on the windowsill and take a moment to look at all the wonderful submissions whether they are of the world around us seen through a window or encourage us to imagine the life that takes place behind them.

Don’t forget to follow us on Twitter to see the next challenge directly in your feed. We will be back with the new theme next Tuesday.
