London Doorway

I thought this doorway was pretty so I took a couple pictures…I just happen to take them as someone was walking by. I like how he is a little blurred, I hope you like it, too.

In a hurry?

Two Photographs: Looking up at a fire tower and fire escape

From a town in Arkansas. I enjoy climbing things and, thankfully, I was allowed to climb the fire tower. It was tall but the view wasn’t that great. I like fire escapes, I wonder if the apartment I’m moving to has one?

A Couple Lighthouses of Maine

These are from a trip I took up to Maine with my sister about a year ago. The first pictures are of Bass Harbor Head Light which is a lighthouse located within Acadia National Park on the southeast corner of Mount Desert Island, Maine and the last two are of the Egg Rock Light in Winter Harbor, Maine.

Photographs of a Few Ukrainian Cathedrals

Here are some pictures of churches I took while I was over in Ukraine. I think they’re all Russian Orthodox, but I’m not totally sure. Also, I tried to do some research, but I couldn’t find the names of two of them. I hope you enjoy.

Doorways: Poland

Continuing my “Doorways” series, here are some pictures of doorways that I took while I was in Poland for a few days. Poland had some nice, wooden doors with interesting door frames and walls surrounding them. I hope you enjoy and have a wonderful day.

Doorways: NC and AR

In some other posts I’m also going to post “doorway pictures” from Ukraine, Poland, and London, but in this one I’m just going to do some from Arkansas and North Carolina. Three from AR are actually pillars under a bridge, but since homeless people have slept and lived where I was sitting, even that is a doorway, of sorts. The person’s back you see in one of the bridge ones is my friend, Matt.

The rest of them are from Old Salem (a part of Winston-Salem) NC and Mt. Airy NC.

Old Salem, NC. I used Gimp's (photo editing software) "Old photo" filter on this pic.

Ditto for this one. This lady was locking up for the night.

Windows Are Around the World

Windows are here, windows are there, windows are everywhere. Decorative, plain, old and, well, I’m not sure I took any pictures of new windows because they aren’t nearly as interesting to me. Here are some pictures of windows that I have taken in Ukraine, Poland, and the good ol’ USA.
