Monthly Theme Day - Doorways


I have many door and doorway photos in my file. The bulk of them are from Europe, however. So, I decided I needed to find something from a bit closer to home. A number of years ago I was out shooting winter snow scenes in the Cascade Mountains near Snoqualmie Pass and found this lovely buried (cabin) treasure. This winter scene has been used commercially a number of times over the years, as well as for one of the annual Christmas cards my wife and I make together. A fitting image for our City Daily Photo Blog monthly theme of "doorways", don't you think?

Wha an amazing image, Chuck. How perfect is that for today! It's simply beautiful and speaks of cosy nights and crisp days.

I don't remember the card, but I do remember seeing the image so it must be from the card... Happy accidents do happen, don't they?

What a super shot. I can see how it would make an excellent Christmas Card. Warm and snuggly. MB

Buried treasure is the right word! It's even poetic and romantic!

Beautiful shot as we start that journey into winter. I wonder if anyone else got cold just looking at this photo.

I imagine a warm fire and hot cocoa with mini marshmallows behind that door!

A beautiful wintery doorway! Yours had the most SNOW of any other blog - maybe the only doorway with snow at CDP? Great snap for theme day!

Hi Chuck, Great picture. It is truly a classic winter scene.

As for your question about my photo today, I made my door collage using Picasa.
