Ornamental Ironwork

I took a new way into work this morning and a nice church near me which is usually gated off was open. I popped in and took some nice shots of the baroque stone entryway to the cathedral. I ended up liking this shot the most, which highlights the nice ironwork on the door and the great blue color of it as well.

Oh, the iron work is phenomenal on that door, and I LOVE the blue color of the door! Also like the arch that the door creates, and I love that you got one statue in here, but the focus stayed on the door! Great job!

[Jeff G.]

I love the color and the detail. Nice use of the angle as well.

[LisLee]

I like the angle as well. I also like the other elements, the statue in the back and the arches. Beautiful building!

a gorgeous blue door! love it!

[Shawnanne]

Very beautiful.....love the blue door, very unique.

[FaerieMoon]

I love this door--for the same reasons you've listed. I'll bet it's beautiful inside.

[Bob Hettinger]

I really like the weather-worn look of the building in contrast to the bright blue of the door!

[Crystal Drake]

Love the angle! That is a fabulous entryway!

[Rebbecca Castillo]

The ironwork is very pretty and so is the color of the door :D Nice shot Steve!

@clarissajohal sadly only the walls were standing after the war, the inside of what is a beautiful gothic cathedral on the outside becomes a boring 1970s chuch on the inside.

Nicely composed and shot!

@harvey That's a shame--time marches on, I guess

I love this! I love the angle, the iron work and the blue. Those German churches are so beautiful, no matter what state they're in.

Fabulous, love the blue, love the iron, love the stone. Great door shot. Fav.

[Slater Mapp]

The sculpture on the right, functions well as a sort of anchor to the tilted shot.

[Allison Williams]

I also like the black detail against the weathered blue. Very nice angle as well.

[Kimberly Mitchell]

Fantastic. I love blue doors!

[Andrea Renner]
