Lacy gate

Now I really am going to take a break from this gallery (I say again ;-)). I still have a lot of images to work on as it was a big neighborhood but maybe will just add them now and then or when I can no longer take any pictures because it’s too hot to go outside.

I’d like to say thank you for the great interest in this gallery! I personally found the gates fascinating, but I think they also show something about the culture and lifestyle as well as the craftsmanship that is alive and well here. I imagine the people who monitor this website are wondering what the big deal is about a bunch of gates! ;-).

The ultimate in privacy and beauty too. This would cost a small fortune in the States to build. Excellent shot and nice ending to this unique gallery. V
