Colorful Calcutta Buildings

We all know Calcutta is quite colorful and for some reason, people have the need to paint their houses and buildings with odd bright colors. While some are fun to look at, others simply give you a headache. Either way they seem to work as a landmark, especially where streets have no signs, which is about 70% of the side streets in the city. Sometimes I just stop and think if people are actually color blind when it comes to choosing the color of their building, but then again with so many of them, its more of a trend I guess............Anyway here are a few and will post more as I get them. Enjoy the brightness......

This is actually a century and a half old entrance to someones house. I liked the details.
