Nice

Just a nice house and uniquely designed gate.

I have photographed so many gates and doors over the years here, but at this point – getting towards the end of the gallery -- I’m just posting ones that I feel stand out in one way or another. The subjects are endless because every single house has high walls and a gate, but a lot of them do look similar or are not so outstanding. We, for instance, have high walls and a door, but it is pretty nondescript (so I wouldn’t bother taking a picture of it).

Formidable, posted earlier:

It is hard to believe these are private homes! They look so imposing and so ornate, not to mention big! Beautifully photographed. V

Mosest, but oh so beautiful. the round window in the wall is eyecatching.
