Seven Days Outside Photo Challenge ~ Gate Thursday

in #sevendaysoutside6 years ago

This is my entry for today's #sevendaysoutside, the creative photo challenge led by @erikah that opens your eyes to the often overlooked beauty in the everyday outdoors.

Love is the master key that opens the gates of happiness, of hatred, of jealousy, and, most easily of all, the gate of fear.

Sharp images, create blackandwhite images are very beautiful

Thanks for taking a look and making that observation.

That’s an interesting composition. The shadow on the wall, which is probably from some trees almost looks like it could be a very out of focus shadow from the design in the middle of the gate. And the whiteness coupled with the slight blurriness of the wall really make the lines of the gate pop out sharp and clear.

I really appreciate that thoughtful critique.

Sorry, I had some auto-correct typos in my comment. Hopefully the meaning was still clear enough. It confused me a little when I reread it.

No, I got it. Thanks!

nicely captured.means a lot.

Thanks for stopping by.
