Marion, how nostalgic it must be for you to look at this. I'm amazed at how much family history has evolved in this side challenge of images. It's like a tribute to our past, present and future. This is simply wonderful from the detail in the old doors to the amazing light seeping thru the cracks and openings, as if something bright and cheerful wants to flood the interior of this old shed. At least you have these memories to look back on. |

I can see why it is one of your favorites. The artistry of the photo is reason enough. I love the light and the beautiful processing. It turns an interesting scene to something quite extraordinary. But the significance of this particular photo and its timing make it even more special. Thanks for sharing your long-ago gem.

Before I read your notes, I thought this had a feeling of holding something out. Now I see that it's holding something - memories - in, and that those memories are bright, vibrant, and warm. Thanks so much for sharing this one. |

Doorway to the light. What a powerful image and a perfect one to have taken on your last visit at your parents' house. Incredible photo. |

This is a very powerful image, Marion! The texture of the doors is wonderful, the horseshoe a great addition, but like the others I'm most moved by the light which refuses to be stopped by these comforting old doors. |

I can see why you love it! The light pouring through is awesome. So symbolic, welcoming light, just waiting, held back by the doors of fate. |

I can't decide if this is sinister or comforting. This could really be symbolic if you studied it long enough. That harsh light just streams through every nook and cranny, so either it is a beautiful sunny day ready to greet you behind those doors, or something strong and maybe scary. I like the possibilities. Oh, I just saw the horseshoe. Well, I know all is going to be ok now. You hang a horseshoe above a door for good luck!!! You hold it with the opening of the "U" down, so that all the bad luck runs out. I like this very much. :~)

like the way light creeps through and around the cracks and edges. |

Looks like a shed with a lot of character. I like the horseshoe hanging on the door and the hint of the pail in the lower right. |

the light spilling through doors dominates and it should. |
