Doorway or Gate?-ABC WEDNESDAY "D"


Doorway to mi casa.  Inside is a small courtyard which Maggi, our dog, often enjoys.  

To see more ABC WEDNESDAY photos, go here.

Yesterday I posted several dune trees, and Birdman from Portland, Maine suggested that he'd like to see them in Black and White.  I posted one of them below, just for him.  Great suggestion, Birdman!!

  4. Trees and doors are my weakness - so I'm just rolling around loving your post today. The sun on that beautiful blue door - wonderful. I can't believe you get to see that everyday!

  7. So beautiful and inviting the doorway "to su casa". Love the green color with the clay (argila) color.

    Stunning photos of these dune trees, in B&W and in color too.

  8. A friend of ours told us and showed us photos of courtyards of houses in Santa Fe painted with a horizontal stripe of that same color blue as in your gate separating a darker color for the lower portion of a wall from a lighter color of the top portion. For my wife's mother's patio home, we used that Santa Fe-inspired color scheme for her completely enclosed patio, and it turned out delightfully.

  17. Is that a little farolito winking above to the the left? What a welcoming entrance! I love arched doors!

    And the dunes photo is equally stunning in B&W. I'd be hard pressed to say one or the other is better. They're both gorgeous shots!

  19. I think it's more of a doorway, not a gate. Love the color of it, Great Kate!

  24. Hello.
    I love bright colors & this Caribbean blue turquoise is beautiful. Perfect color for a shirt I'd say...actually looks like the color of one I own! At least there won't be any mistaking which door leads to your haven (lol). The black & white is pretty impressive too.
    Nice photos.
    Thanks for sharing.
