The wonderful contributions from everywhere will delight. Share your own link in the comments on Dan’s weekly Door’s page.

Obviously, I’m late for the party this week. Busy schedule and not feeling 100%. But enough with excuses, I made it and even though it’s from the shoot I did the previous week in Annapolis MD. It’s better than missing a week. These didn’t make the cut the last week but being I didn’t get any new shooting done; they are this week’s contribution to the cause.

Have a great Memorial Day Weekend. And please pause for those who gave their lives for the freedom we live in today.

I wish it was sunny here in the mid-Atlantic, but it is a dreary weekend.

I told my wife I couldn’t bear to go into one more store.

The door on the left below has a brutal step down. The door on the right has 4 steep steps up to it. I stood at the base of those steps to shoot the door.
