This door with its massive hardware leads into the Ottoman Garden at the Missouri Botanical Garden.

You've caught such excellent detail in the color and texture. That red really pops.

Who cares what's behind the door when the door itself is worthy of our attention! Well seen and composed.

Beautiful work. Your photoblog is breathtaking. I'll stay here for a while and have a look at all your photographs. The 40D is an amazing cam... (could only afford a 400D - it's quite ok) Cya Wys

Deep colours and textures, you really feel this door is worth looking at, and that big door knocker must make a good sound against the wood

Pity that you revealed the secret, I thought it was a door leading to a ceremonial place of freemasons or so :). Beautiful use of red in a very interesting composition.

Terrific composition. The disks and ring are balanced by the expanse of red.

I love the red door, but more than that the door knocker just adds such drama to the picture. Great composition and now I want to go through that door and see the garden.

This door challenges the imagination! The colour is outstanding! And those two details are just where they should be playing an important part as necessary accents.
