Dots, lines and curves

I am having a hard time finding titles for all these gates ;-).

I have photographed so many gates and doors over the years here, but at this point – getting towards the end of the gallery -- I’m just posting ones that I feel stand out in one way or another. The subjects are endless because every single house has high walls and a gate, but a lot of them do look similar or are not so outstanding. We, for instance, have high walls and a door, but it is pretty nondescript (so I wouldn’t bother taking a picture of it).

Nice, posted earlier:

Another beautiful door. I wonder if the owners are competing with each other. V

Amazing the variations you've found! This one is so dramatic and geometric.
