good qualities for a photographer also.

it is surely adequate Ed.

indeed very nice ones.

I’m not obsessive about doors as such, but I do find them interesting. Doors can open the way to something mundane or fantastical. They can open to show you something you’ve never seen before or they can shut, barring the way and excluding you from what they conceal; leaving you guessing, wanting…

In chinese one of the characters for change symbolizes the opening and closing of doors.

that is so true.

So, for a mundane item that has a simple purpose, I have put this collage together to show how I think a door can reflect how we perceive our world.

many thanks for sharing this with us.

I could do a collage of the photos of various rooms in the houses I have viewed this week. lol

As intriguing as the assignment is, I doubt I'll get an entry done. One more full day here and then back in the air.

I'm enjoying seeing all your entries though. Miss you guys.

[Rense]

please do Athena!

It would not be very interesting I am afraid as I am fixated on mundane things like built in cupboards and kitchen appliances. And we chose one today, so the search is (hopefully) over. Look forward to some very cute village photos later this year.

We are in the same time zone at the moment.

[Rense]

oke, I´ll start this assignment again in a year from now, maybe you have more time then .

[loeee]

Athena, mundane things are the order of the day.

Are you going back to SEA to complete the move, or on somewhere else before settling in Switzerland?
