I have also been fascinated by, and have been photographing, doors for decades. They frame themselves and express so much about the place behind them. It is so simple to make a beautiful photograph when the door is beautiful. Doors are symbolically so meaningful and can be visually stunning. A statement. A possibility. A vision of what might be beyond. And, as Kathy says, an invitation.

We went to the neighborhood of Companha yesterday and say the hand door pulls. Creepy and fascinating too. We had a brass rabbit on our last house. I miss it. Thanks for the pictures.

Great photos, Nancy! We have been fascinated by the variety of doors we see around Porto. We haven;t seen hand-shaped handles, but yesterday we saw door knockers that were nearly identical.
