Cynnie, your captures are beautiful and your words are very true and poetic. Lovely post! Hugs, Terri
ReplyDeleteSome windows and doors can be ugly, like the ones we need to replace. Those were beautiful and I enjoyed the tour!
ReplyDeleteCynnie, your photos also let others ‘see’ in to another world. I enjoyed looking at the different styles. Thank you. Your words were so apt.
ReplyDeleteCynnie, thanks for sharing...really entertaining. also, I appreciate your comments on my blog. thanks!
ReplyDeleteAwesome post, Those are some gorgeous doors and windows. i do murals and faux painting but never quite this elorabate.
ReplyDeleteQuite a relief to see I'm not the only one who's taking shots of doors and windows on my way :)

Fabulous pictures! Love them all. Great inspiration for new art work. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing the beautiful windows and doors from Germany they have so much character. I love to photograph both windows and doors when I can, got some really nice ones in Italy :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting me and your lovely and helpful comments on the flower art.

We recently replaced three 25-year-old doors. The new ones came in fine, but the old ones went out with so many memories. I miss them.

Wonderful post! I love old and colorful or ornate doors. Your words are lovely too, very poetic.
ReplyDeleteHi Cynnie, really interesting post, thanks for sharing:)
ReplyDeleteThese are some pretty impressive doors and windows. I always love it when I see where others live. This post was so much fun because we have nothing in my little town that compares to some of these photos. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHello Cynnie,
ReplyDeleteI just discovered your blog via Trash to Treasure, Lynn Stevens. I'm so glad I came here. I love the windows and prose. I've decided to become a follower.
Thanks so much for posting!
Have a great day ahead

ReplyDeleteGood morning Cynnie - loved seeing the windows with the little crochet curtains - they remind me so much of Holland. I lived there for 17 years, married a Dutch man. Lovely post, TFS!

ReplyDeletethese are amazing doors and gorgeous photos! I wish we had doors like this in the USA! thank you so much for sharing them with us!
Great pics...great post! TFS!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful post and photos! Germany is a place I have to visit eventually. Seeing this post makes me want to go out and try something similar, though it's pouring rain outside. Perhaps on a sunny day.
ReplyDeleteI could quite happily move into some of those premises. TFS such amazing architecture. Lynne x
ReplyDeleteI love those doors and windows - magic photos. Thanks for sharing them.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful inspiration in this post!
ReplyDeleteThis post took me right back to art school, where one of my teachers - and an artist - was famous (at least among his students and in the region) for always photographing doors. He spend half his life looking at doors. We called him "Kees Deur" (his name: Kees, and his last name "Door"...) your post brought back some nice memories! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHello Cynnie :-)
ReplyDeletethanks for your visits, I am so much pleasure ...
Beautiful post

I tend to see doors as an opening-- with possibly a mystery within-- love doors-- especially old weathered ones-- this a beautiful post.
ReplyDeleteEuropean architecture is so much more interesting than Canadian. I love the little princess doll in the one window.
ReplyDeleteCynnie, what a beautiful and incredible collection of architecture, and wonderful words to go with them. Thanks for giving us a tour of your part of the world.
