Thank you guys for the comments!
John, the shot is taken at 13:15 (sun is still low these days). I think the door is just for emergency purposes. It is on the backside of a new museum. Maybe the wall will be painted once. I must admit that I enhanced saturation of the red light to make it glow a bit. I think it work reasonably well.

A great composition and the red light really ads just enough color to balance the whole image visually. Very nicely seen. Markjay

Well, that wall and door say, "Nothing much of interest here", but that red light says, "Don't be careless". The shadows make me wonder what time of day, (or night), this door is used. The title adds a twist. Quite an interesting, if minimal, cocktail. jrdu

Nice composition.
I love the slanted shadows.

Interesting composition, Franky - the one red light in all that grey.
