Door Stories - Post your door photos here

sarasphotos

I love photographing interesting doors and details thereof. In addition to often being beautiful works of craftsmanship, they also hold so many stories - what lies behind, who has walked through? Due to the circumstances of where I live and travel, most of my doors are pretty old, but of course even more modern doors can tell and interesting story.

Here's a few photos to kickoff, some of my favorite doors and details.

Close to home: Augsburg, Cathedral


Cahors, France



Armory doors, Kufstein Fortress, Austria



Cathedral St. Etienne, Toulouse, France

This is exactly what I often think when looking at doors and/or windows, too

.... and this is certainly one of those... even if I posted it already in Urban Exploration... I think these 2 threads may overlap a little

It's about a door, but it's also about the occupant standing in the door from sunrise to sunset. This one was taken on a summer day in Provincetown, MA.



I have to include a close-up of the occupant too!

This one is a bit scary Don - I don't think I'd like to step out of this door!
Where is it?
