More doors. Two flower patterns repeated throughout. These will most likely vanish or be completely redone (St-Jacques street). Hmmm. Will have to wait and see. Thank you for your tolerance to my excessive tweaking at the moment (size..color...banners...)
I've definitely gone vertical lately..hmm. Anyway, another door but what a door knocker! I would have loved to try it out...but was afraid to bother!
As promised...the gates of hell.
I found this graffiti on a door in a back alley in Old Mtl, somewhere around Place Royale. What a great drawing...and if it wasn't for this photograph, I'm not so sure many people would be privy to it at the moment, it being in chalk and all...and all that rain that fell this morning, even with her umbrella to protect her.
As many Old Montrealers already know, the doors on some of these old buildings are incredible. The work that goes into keeping them shiny is not negligeable either. So here's to "doors of Old Montreal"!
I have a thing with doors, but I have to blame it on the doors themselves. These last few were so nice I had to take out my camera. Although I have tendency to like the older looking ones, this one had some caracter and got included in the gang. I know it's around de la Commune and Place Royale, but I have completely forgotten its exact location.
Finally, another dog's eye view shot. I loved the mini tile at the bottom of the wall and again...my favorite, the vignetting (I swear, completely unplanned). I like the green-yellow of the wall and the wood of the door in contrast with the red mini tiles. Place Royale, east-side, closer to de la Commune they just left the door open!
As you can clearly see, the typical vignetting so dear to my heart is well displayed in this shot. There are some doors around here that are so worth recording on film, this one along with some barred-up windows make you wonder how long they have been around. On de la Commune Street, corner St-François-Xavier.
I don't know how long this church will be around with the C.H.U.M. coming around in the fall...so I've recorded the door for posterity's sake. Neo-gothic? Corner St-Denis and Viger
