Outside Door Color

I've been searching high and low for the perfect blue for our home. I wanted to paint the door but I may not have stopped there. What do you think of the new color?
Our new front door - in a Benjamin Moore High Gloss Blue.

    Your house is so gorgeous. I'm not concerned in the slightest that you don't know how to style it :) and I think the patina of true shingle is spectacular and quintessentially New England. I hate it that the composite shingles dont weather as the real do. I think your choice of blue is perfect. I fought the wars of finding the perfect blue for my front door and ultimately gave up and painted it grey. It's tricky finding that perfect blue that doesn't go too colonial, too electric, too grey, too purple. Ahh. I'm reliving my summer of painting the door once a week all over again. Love the choice to use the same color on the shutters.

      @Stephen Andrew Thank you! I'm still loving the color in the throws of autumn. The door now has a wreath and brass knocker. I see that you're really into gardening. Maybe you could give me some advice for plants in the front. We're going to do some planting this spring. We get a lot of shade in the front of the house. Thanks!

    Looks great, I love the new shutters you put on your windows. Really made a big difference
