    That door is incredible. Nice picture – and excellent haiku to distill the image into thoughts

    Makes you want to go see what’s behind it.

    No! It definitely doesn’t need a makeover – it’s perfect exactly how it is! So much character and texture, I bet it could tell wonderful stories…

    PS Is it a zinnia? I’m terrible with flowers, I had no idea. Now I can rename it in my etsy shop :).

    I envision a ‘vieja’ – brown and wrinkled – answering that door when I knock, and bringing out 2 chairs for us to sit and talk…..reminiscent of my native Sicily

    Oh, please, no.
    I can’t stand the thought of a broken face.
    A face and a door who have had a life; that’s fine with me.
    I’m definitely against botoxed doors & faces.

    Nice photo, I like to watch that door expresses the passage of time on it, deliciously magical, like haiku.

    Makes me imagining the people who lives behind that door…
    Dramatic shot.

    I have been collecting photos of doors since grade school. Somehow they speak to me. This is a super shot.
