Striking doors (4)

We came across this neighborhood one evening on our way back home from a supermarket, and I was so intrigued by a gate I wanted to go back and see more. It’s not as upscale a neighborhood as the one I photographed last year, but I always find it interesting to see how people live here.

This is a series of four doors and gates from the same house that I thought were quite striking. If I could choose the doors on our house, these would be it.

The third in this series of doors, posted earlier:

I really do like the design and color and silver, but I think I would feel a bit claustrophobic behind these heavy doors. V

Looking at them as thumbnails, I was struck how the top doors could be interpreted as cats' eyes.
