Do you have any collections?
Today’s blog prompt made me perk up a little! I have had an absolutely crazy busy couple of weeks at work and have been driving instead of taking public transport for that reason, therefore, have been out of action from blogging for what seems an eternity. However, I felt compelled to answer the prompt today, seeing as I also missed Thursday Doors yesterday.
Most people think of collections as stamps, coins, or model cars, however, mine is a little different, I collect doors (as most of you already know).
Not actual doors, of course, my house isn’t overflowing with salvaged front entrances but instead I collect photographs of them. Wherever I travel, may it be local or afar, I find myself drawn to interesting doorways. Brightly painted doors in narrow streets, weathered wooden doors that have stood for generations, grand entrances to historic buildings, or quirky modern designs that stop me in my tracks.
My collection has grown steadily over time, and scrolling through the photos is like taking a journey through places I have visited. Each image brings back memories of a particular street, city, holiday, or chance discovery. I have showcased just a few below to show you what I mean. I am delighted to have met so many other door enthusiasts in this blogging community too and I will hopefully continue to find new and interesting doors to show you all.




Quite the collection of doors!

A very unique collection, Wayne. I think what stands out to me is not just the doors themselves, but the framing around them. The walls, the decorations, the plants and paint. All together, they create wonderful moments captured on film (or digitally). 🙂
Hope you have a fantastic weekend, my friend. ☀️
