The Doors - Theme

[Pete Askew]

Inspired by a post by Chris, how about a theme on doors. The only requirement is that the door in question is associated with you personally (house, shed, work etc).

Here's my entry.



Sony RX100. PP in LR / Nik ColorFX Pro 4.

That is a fine old door. Works well as an image too, I like the lines and tones.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Okay, so we are all invited to contribute our doors? I'll get to it.

Love the tones and textures of this shot, Pete. Rusting metal work and weathered wood - what's not to like?

 

[Chris Bennett]

Awww, I can't play, cos I've run out of doors!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Which makes you an outsider...

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Well, after a quick scout around the house with the Sigma SD Quattro and its 110mm macro lens...numbers 1, 2 and 3:

 

[Chris Bennett]

This is the other side of the second door from the other thread.
I suppose you could call it The Doors B-Side...




And here is one I took a couple of weeks ago...



Caton Moor Wind Farm - I have a slightly tenuous connection with this place via work.

 

[Pete Askew]

Some damn fine entries so far. Keep 'em coming!

Do you wear that tie, Rob?!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

It's a pinnie - what's the more usual name? I can't remember. The thing you wear when cooking...

 

[Pete Askew]

An apron. Is the skull a reference to your culinary skills by any chance?!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Oi!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Yes, an apron. We call them pinnies, as I said. Either word is weird...

 

[Pete Askew]

From Pinafore I think, isn't it? Same as down here.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Must be. HMS Apron just isn't the same.

 

[Dave Farnes]

Chris, I do like the contrast between old and modern, two very different doors!

 

[Dave Farnes]

The Door to the Secret Garden - where I work one day a week.

 

[Pete Askew]

Oh now I like that, Dave. Very ethereal.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Nice one, Dave. Are you a Hobbit? And your comments lead me to wondering what on earth you do in there one day a week. None of my business, of course!

 

[Pete Askew]

It's the other six you want to worry about!

 

[Dave Farnes]

Thank you guys.
Well, since you asked: I mowed a lawn, did some weeding and had morning coffee with the vicar.
