DP Theme Day: Doorways
The monthly ritual. It's theme day. Here's a doorway that I found interesting only because of the light of the afternoon sun shining through forcing my camera to shadow all the details of the door.
Now go have a look at these other doorways.
1 -2 -3 -4 -5 -6 -7 -8 -9 -10 -11 -12 -13 -14 -15 -16 -17 -18 -19 -20 -21 -22 -23 -24 -25 -26 -27 -28 -29 -30-31 -32 -33 -34 -35 -36 -37 -38 -39 -40 -41 -42 -43
Sorry for not visiting everyone (and missing 2 days!) but I'm so knackered from the show which is positively consuming my waking thoughts and demands constant sleep. My friend Insomnia is on holiday!

Gorgeous photo!
This picture, and your working with your play reminded me of a quote...
"We do on stage things that are supposed to happen off. Which is a kind of integrity, if you look on every exit as being an entrance somewhere else."
I'm glad you take great pictures on your exit... er.... entrance. :)
i thought you were busy celebrating Independence Day. No independence day shots? see your flip-flops in the photo and a dog dish is it? So many things beyond the doorway. Rest well..
ery chiarascuro. Beautiful, edwin. I find it more interesting than you perhaps, becaus it's a door on a different world to mine (of course)
Great composition - has the quality of a painting to it
Da-Da-Da-Da

I agree with Ham, great composition. Also, great lighting and shadows.
Great photo, very inviting. I agree about the lighting, it gives the photo a calming element.
Nice. Love the dog dish, too.
those slippers.. most malaysian and singaporean homes have them :-)
the days before everyone in Msia / Spore started to wear Haviana flip flops or Birkenstocks.
Hi Edwin! Great composition! Who's doorway is this?
Nice relaxing shot, like the thongs ( or flip flops or sandles or whatever you call them !)
first impression- the door is long and tall..is it yours?
Lovely double doorway. You are so good at capturing the light here! So many wonderful elements: the reflection of the chair and zories on the flooring, the green leaves, the defined panels of the the door, the light spilling into the room, the fringe on the throw--just wonderful!

Uuuu lovely shot, looks very warm, hope it feels the same.
I bet that's your door isn't it?
I like this photo a lot too and just like Kaa I notised that there must be a dog somewhere ;-) And it's so great idea to shot doorway from inside to out!
Lovely, peaceful scene. From the size of the water bowl, there must be a rather large doggie nearby.
Edwin, often when I come to KLDP I find in photos things I am reading in Roland Barthes' Camara Lucida. Below, more or less my rough translation:
For me, photographs of landscapes (urban or countryside) should be liveable, and not visitable. — Roland Barthes
Now, to me, this photo is very intimate and makes me want to live there. Futhermore, the photo has what Barthes calls "punctum", a detail that is not the focus but it punctures you somehow. To me the "punctum" in this photo is caused by the sandals.
Thanks for this image.
So serene Edwin....shhhhhhhhhh everyone...don't want to wake the slumbering god...bet it's his door too Dutchie! OK, NOW WAKE UP, SMELL THE COFFEE AND HOP TO IT! (=
looks pretty cool indoor...is that your flip flops?
Yes, for those of you who guessed, this is the back door that leads to the garden of my house. I took this picture the day the elctricity went off. I was on the sofa reading. I looked up for a moment and saw this light. Click click and Ta-Da!
Dear Keropokman...these are havaianas! ;)
And the doggy bowls belong to one of my 3 dogs. His name is Henry Higgins. Not too big a dog but enough to knock you over when he charges at you! My baby he is.
Ok Ame...I'll be coming by soon(ish)
Rudy, don't say things like that. I'm so humbled and no bookshop in the region has the book. I'm dying to read it!
10 am photoshoot. It's now 1:50 am and just got back from a party that was thrown for us. Wish I could've stayed a teeny bit longer but the need to look flawless in the morning...ooooohhhhhhh!
I'm late in making comments, but this door has so much activity going on. Love the flip-flops !
Lovely shot! Feels warm and inviting!
Peaceful scene; dog dishes, too?
Cool shot Edwin! I love those rubber slippers under the chair...very asian!
Hi Edwin
This is truly beautiful and a photo to gaze at for a long time. It holds some kind of secret...
Be well!
