1. Fascinating. Imagine the souls who have entered/exited those old doors.

4. MAny people.

I like climbing church tower stairs and seeing the wear on the stone steps. How many thousands went this way before?

7. I know what you mean. There is a feeling about "old" places that can't be matched by

modernity.

2. Curiously poignant pictures

Once, years ago, someone stepped back from that green door gleaming with fresh paint and was pleased and proud. Once those glass panes were a delight to the owner.

Your photos are lovely. Thanks.

5. Thank you for the compliments

The old and worn always are evocative,

3. Love the iron work, the vines, the shadows

And especially admire the artistry of the mural
