Day 27 - To See Or Not To See



I almost drove by this one!! It wasn't until I'd almost passed it that I saw the interesting entry under that curved roof. I thought it was a stainless steel wall and doors reflecting what was in front, but on closer inspection, I now realize it is a grate design and what we're seeing is really the inner yard, since the sidewalk, close to the doors, is not reflected and we see a lawn and yard! I also didn't notice at the time, and I'm now wondering is how that overhead colored light looks at night! I might have to drive by there and check it out. But not tonight! It's my 30th anniversary, and here I am, uploading a picture! Call that dedication. Or.....?

Happy Anniversary :-)

And what a great photo. The composition is great as are the doors and building. A very eye catching photo today.

I have never seen anything like this in my life. As Andromeda says too, beautiful composition! You should make a book, the best door and gates of California or something.

Happy anniversary!

Love the lines in this shot. Very unusual door - glad you pointed out that the images we were seeing were past the door and not a reflection in it.

I like the lines and the curves, the mixture is nice.

Amazing doors, I love how the left set of lines is slightly curved. And how we can partly see through the glass.

Congrats on your jubilee. Time flies, doesn't it. We are living together for 30 years in 6 months.

Happy Anniversary.
That's a beautiful door. Looks like glass or something very shimmery. What a nice find and a great composition. I wonder what anyone thinks of you poking your lens at everyone's house? I have had a few questions about my persistent presence down at the lake with my camera, so you must raise some eyebrows too.

A very happy anniv! :) I love the curves of the door and the roof. Quite aerodynamic.

Well spotted, this is a very well crafted gate, I thought it might have been water running down at small size.
Congratulations on 30 years!
