Hi Tim, I love this old Norman doorway...a jewel of architecture. We have a few here in Essex as well...and I love the style of carving on the doorways and in churches. Nice capture, mate.

Hi Tim,
what a wonderful door! You rendered it very well in all its graphism and details, TFS.

a nice and alone place, where the entrance door is not very wide, and the inside makes a strong contrast as you get in very above the altar.

Hi Tim,
very good capture of that beautiful door. Very good symmetrical frame and excellent natural colours. What type of stone was used to do this archway? Was it sandstone? I ask this question because I'm a geologist.
Best regards and have a nice weekend.

Salut Tim,
As to a story to tell, this one offers a lot of opportunities. Starting with the "Welcome"... which is in quotes... perhaps expressing a certain "irony" For after all is there an echo of the "Fermez la porte!", which may have accompanied the last visitor?
Then there is the juxtaposition of Black & White... Is the 'outside' white, and the 'inside' black? Or does the "superficial" merely hint?
One thing for sure, the ravages of time are clear...
Very thought- < and word- > provoking, eh! Tfs, Jay
