Thursday Doors

23-06-22

Haven’t been out photographing much lately, and my Laptop has broken. So it’s the old desktop PC for this post, which took absolutely ages to update. This door is one of my favourites, I have printed a copy of it on a lovely textured paper and put it in a frame.

To see some Doors from around the world check out Dan Antions excellent “Thursday Doors” blog

Taken in 2007 in Salies De Bearn, Aquitaine, France, with a Nikon F601 on Kodak Elitechrome 200 slide film.

Orthez, Aquitaine, France

A bit of a cop out really, but my excuse is 2 weeks of man flu and not very good weather. Hopefully I’ll be out and about soon and have some new doors to post. These images are from around 2006 and taken on a film camera.

Check out the excellent Norm 2.0 blog for a great selection of doors from around the globe.

My friends moved out to Aquitaine to set up a Bed & Breakfast, which I have visited many times. It’s such a lovely area, and I hope to be seeing them again later this year. The nearest town of any size is Orthez, it’s a set on the Gave de Pau, has some great buildings and more importantly some great doors.

I guess I’ve always liked photographing doors, archways, and gates !

This One Was For Sale

This is What the Rest of it Looked Like

If only I’d had a million or two.

All Good Things

Pastries, Chocolates, and Beer, what more do you want ?

Furniture

Religious Building

Really liked the Ivy and the doorway of course.

Resting today after having a severe haircut  ! Well I don’t have much hair anyway, but it was a good excuse to chill out with the cats. A friends band are playing at a local pub tomorrow, looking forward to their music, meeting up with friends, and of course a few beers.

One from the archive, probably 2008, taken with my Canon 35mc on Konica 200asa.
