The gate is open and the door swung wide in silent invitation, to pass from summer into autumn with just a few steps taken.

Steve - Again, you use lighting to great effect in this photo. The many climbing plants and flowers along the shaded garden wall contrasts with the brightly lit lawn and autumn tree beyond the doorway and fence. Very well composed. Thad

Excellent work with the view through the doorway to the gate. I also like the variety of colors the flowers have.

...Um...if you don't mind, I will stay at the summer side of the door, I am not so into autumn :oD

But a nice imagination and presentation of the two seasons!

*Another idea for a contest..perhaps*

Just gave this beauty a "9" in the VB. Love the balance of the composition, your use of contrast and colors which are delightful.

I'm not afraid of dying. I just don't want to be there when it happens.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . .
