Although I have pages of photos in the Photography section of this website, I prefer a mix of writing and images in this blog. However, these doors and windows on the streets of Antigua, Guatemala are worth sharing along with the Antigua posts. So many stories behind those doors and through those windows…
More Antigua posts: Antigua, Antigua saints and ruins. The Easter processions in Antigua are recounted in a previous post, Semana Santa.

Thanks so much! For some reason, doors and windows attract me (as they do many other photographers as well). Something about the opening to another place beyond.

I love photographing doors and windows in cities I visit. Old Quebec City and Dublin come to mind. So much variety and colour for such simple elements. Thanks for sharing Ruth. Allan

Thank you, Allan. And there is the suggestion of something beyond out those doors and windows, a hint of mystery and things to come.

Well, you know my opinion(s): The USA, and many countries, are loaded with repressive/nasty/backward-thinking people. It only that weren’t true.

I’m not sure why, but the image that gets to me the most is the one of the window with plants. Maybe it’s because of the building’s soft yellow color.

Thanks, Neil. I appreciate your comments. The ones with the plants look lived in and taken care of.

The walls are a bit run-down, but the colors remain vibrant and indicative of the colonial history there. Love your photos!

Thank you, Rebecca! Some of those walls qualify as ruins, but the colors of the country are vivid and omnipresent.

What a lovely set of images and so evocative of the charm of Antigua – a weathered, slightly worn charm, carrying the weight of centuries.

Love all the doors and windows. As you know, there are many places to do that! I liked Morocco and Italy for that subject matter.
