the back door

I've always been fascinated by doors.  This one was tucked away in a corner of an old municipal building, probably rarely used and maybe even locked.  But I liked how the fanlight reflected the trees and the decorative arch over the doorway.  Doors are kind of mysterious ... you don't know what's behind them or where they may take you.

  1. Did you try the door? I think I would've had to turn the handle just to see. It is rather mysterious that's for sure.

  2. love it! I wish I had a door like this! I live in a condo, so it's standard boring doors all the way down. Someday, my house door will be very regal!

  4. Vee, I never even thought about trying the door! lol!

    Mary, I love the fanlight ... if I could change my door, it would definitely have a fanlight.

    Shirley, I love the wall too! The stone is beautiful and you can see traces of the ivy if you look really close.

  10. Oh it does make you want to open it and see what's inside...but maybe our imaginations are better than the reality in this case....I think I will dream up my own version of what is behind that lovely door. ;)
