Knock Knock

in #photography7 years ago

For today's post, I choose an unusual topic but I think it could be interesting for my followers. I saw some posts with old doors and I'll give it a try.

While walking on streets of the big city I find a lot of beautiful examples. Unfortunately, in Barcelona, every second door was sprayed and of no use for the photo but somehow I still got them enough for you.

I think you can't enter through this one without invitation.

These are a heavy metal church door with an extra fence but as far as I know, the church door should be open 24\7 for believers.

Which painting you like. Top or bottom one?

Unbeatable, even without guards.

I was afraid to check if they are in their's guardhouses.

In Dubai, the doors are not so strong and impressive but they're safe.

They find a better solution.

Cameras.

Old and new.

Just a trick. The door and pub were built just recently. Maybe last year or so,

Like building on this photo.

In Dubay, they don't economize and it's always enough money to impress tourists.

Enjoy summer, my friends.

you take special photos, great.

That first door is one of the coolest I had ever seen. I remember showing a house built by a Peruvian builder (custom around 1 million) and the door was insane. It would take like 8 circles with the key to unlock it. I could never figure that door out.

Great photos those are some unusual doors never see most of them .

Different different doors almost all kinds... Nice.

Diferentes estilos de Arquitectura en todo el mundo @oldtimer, gracias por mostrarnos las mismas

Hey sir thanks for sending some warmth expressions and cool 😎 images of these doors and it's like a recall of old time of Kings in Indian Context.
Although the magnificent experience of these doors is quite appreciative thanks for your share sir.
I wish you Happy monsoon from India.

Oh man! When I was in Barcelona I too admired the doors, so many beautiful glorious doors! That first one is pretty interesting 🤣

It's help to design the door of my house.lol...@oldtimer. outstanding photography.

howdy there @oldtimer! hey this post really worked because it is so fascinating, I had no idea the variety and majesty of some of the doors! great job!

I love the door knocker although it could be a little creepy at night. Looks like it might be Eve tempting visitors with an apple... instead of tempting Adam! The gothic arch with the gate looks more like a prison than a church. For the next photo I like the door painting better than the Madonna and child above. Its an interesting painting possible a craftsmen of some sort and maybe that's what goes on behind the door... great collection!

Great Shots! My favorite painting was bottom on the door. I just love all the designs! Upvoted and resteemed. Thanks for sharing! Hope you enjoy your summer also.

Barcelona is rich in history, culture and nomenclature, see these entries, make you want to get on a time machine and arrive in real time, and I congratulate you on this post, super interesting, I love the old gates in fact in my house there is one that goes back to sixty years, and I do not want to change it, because of security measures I have to do it but it would lose its historical value, I loved your publication. @oldtimer

Nice selection of topic for the post ;)

While the images does looks very great .

While the bottom painting looks much more creative in the image that you asked :)

The General doors does looks pretty elegant and strong in that support ;)

Doors in Barcelona are always so unique and interesting to look at and analyze :) It's awesome that you decided to do a post exactly about some of them! Enjoy summer you too, my friend :)

That's great. Now I have my own idea.

Great shots @oldtimer.
I have always loved the big wooden or steel doors or gates. I think they are absolutely beautiful.

Interesting selection. I loved it!
Thank you for the original photos, @oldtimer

Best wishes from @singa

The doors of the town of Ærøskøbing (Denmark).

In my old job, I ended up seeing some awesome doors and door openers myself, Wasn't able to take photos of them of course, but the novelty of finding and seeing them never wore off.

Very cool selection of doors! I really like the first one due to the detail and how unique it is.

The doors are good. In which some doors are similar to us

The pictures are very nice, in fact I loved the one who had the portrait of someone painted! Thank you for sharing your excellent work with us

The doors special, and yes all these doors hold the ancient essence and good to see some diversified doors and old doors always reflects that mystery essence like something secret world can be found next to that door.

And in many countries the doors which is related to the ancient civilisations can be found with unique and artistic pictures and designs and some door structures can literally scare us because they reflect something mystic.

And i really liked both the paintings and both paintings are telling own stories and when we visit at some ancient places we can find these type of arts on the wall because i truly believe that they had passion towards art.

The pictures which captured in Dubai is singing some deep songs and it reflects as these old and ancient walls and doors hold great stories and those stories are coming out like an music and we can feel it.

Thanks for sharing this post with us and wishing you an great day. Stay blessed. 🙂
