A Closed Door Is An Invitation
“You never know what doors are going to open up and why they are going to open up. You’ve got to be ready to walk through them.”
—Lester Holt
“When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.”
—Helen Keller
A closed door is an invitation to me, because I cannot pass it by without taking aim and photographing it. Can you? These doors come from journeys I’ve made in Mexico—in Chihuahua and the Yucatan—and in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas, where closed meant a photo opportunity, and not a dead end. It’s a good way to approach life, too, I’ve found. ♣

Great shots,Jann!
Thank you, Patti 😀
The light you captured in the last one … gorgeous!
Wasn’t I lucky to find the light? Thanks for your comments.
I enjoyed your collections. Doors continue to intrigue the psyche. They simple conjure so many aspects of our day and life.
Nice gallery, Jann.
Much appreciated!
Well said—doors intrigue us, whether closed, opened or in-between. They’re symbolic of so much. Thanks for your visit, Sally.
