This time to continue my Bali theme, I found some images of the many doors I had photographed whilst on holiday. I have a bit of a thing for taking pictures of windows and doors- but in Bali, there's an awful lot of them.
Bali custom dictates that houses are planned and built in certain ways. A group of buildings within a walled compound, hidden behind a huge door. On either side of the door, statues guard the entrance, protecting the house.
So here we go, various doors found around Bali- some ornate, some plain, some open, some closed:)

This door was open-with a Ganesh statue peeking out from inside.
and Finally -13.
Ok this one is technically not correct- but it was such a lovely example of design that I wanted to include it:)
So a few more shots of Bali- and still a few more to come.
Enjoy your week:)
Amazing doors and a lot more interesting than my plain white UPvC! x
ReplyDeleteI really like the weathered old doors, so pretty.
ReplyDeleteHow nice that the doors are so different! American subdivisions are monotonous in their similarity! Lovely photos!
