My travelling uncles strikes again. This is the third Thursday Doors post with his Morocco door photos, with special thanks since I’ve never been. I don’t have him here to explain things so I won’t include any facts and locations. Suffice to say, it’s Morocco, … Continue reading Thursday Doors, 6/12/18: Morocco 2
Today’s doorhopping comes from the castle above Velenje, the city in Slovenia known for its socialist tradition and values. Not a bad legacy. I’m sure not everything is rosy there but the joy of the people at the recent re-election of its mayor that I … Continue reading Thursday Doors, 29/11/18: Velenje Castle
Here is a good idea if you plan to go to Slovenia: a medieval, well-preserved, picturesque town called Škofja Loka with a 150-year-old coffee and cake house, among other things. It goes without saying that they’ve got doors too. On this August day, the last … Continue reading Thursday Doors, 25/10/18: Škofja Loka I.
Leya wrote “Fences” in the title of her challenge, which is not to say that the singular form would have prevented me from posting twenty of them, as is my norm. But first, I was amazed to discover – only now, as it sometimes happens – … Continue reading Lens-Artists PC: Don’t fence me in
Today is the last door-dedicating Thursday. Twenty more women will be honoured for making my days that much better. A reminder: so far we had two Thursdays of Women’s Doors and one all-male Thursday. With today this silly division is over and we can all … Continue reading Thursday Doors, 29/3/18: Women’s Doors 3
After two Thursday Doors posts full of doors for women, with one more coming up next Thursday, here is one for men. Only one, you’ll say, discrimination! But please, first, excuse this gender segregation the last few Thursdays, it was not planned. This is just … Continue reading Thursday Doors, 22/3/18: Men’s Doors
I continue my celebration of worthy women by way of doors, which I started last week. And it’s not the end. Not only will there be part 3, an all-male doors post is coming up too. Credit where credit is due: there are certain shout-outs … Continue reading Thursday Doors, 15/3/18: Women’s Doors, part 2
Women, ladies, friends. Unite and take over. Usually, I don’t look people between their legs, certainly not upon the first meeting. I’m happiest if I read an excellent book or story or see a stunning photograph but don’t know the gender of the writer or … Continue reading Thursday Doors, 8/3/18: Women’s Day, part 1
This is Tuscany. You stop, have a look around and immediately you have 50 door photos. And not much else. Luckily, I’m a fan. No need to worry, they will keep on coming, the doors of Tuscany. Torri near Siena, the town of the lovely … Continue reading Thursday Doors, 1/3/18: Torri
I understand I should make you anonymous but if you enter my frame, I will click and think “thank you”. This is a selection of people photos from my three visits of Siena. I’d been looking forward to making this selection all week but once … Continue reading WPC: Faces in Siena crowd
A view back to Orvieto in June in the excellent company of my three American friends. Orvieto in Umbria, as amazing as it is, is for some reason not on everybody’s Italian radar. But those who come are far from sorry. Here I got together … Continue reading Thursday Doors, 25/1/18: Orvieto
Door lovers, welcome to my next blog where we shall not be door-thirsty either. As you can see, my blog continues over here with a new format. As for the content, it shall remain more or less as it’s always been: views and stories from … Continue reading Thursday Doors, 11/1/18: Sassetta
