The doorway to a house in San Quirico d'Orcia on a small plaza. The single vine and the combination of stones caught my eye. Have a great Tuesday!
Church Doors at Skrinkle Haven in pembs, UK. Been waiting for a grey day to shoot some long exposures using my Pluto Trigger device, which worked briliantly, once it had connected to my phone....
This Bennington-style porcelain door knob was shot at a building in Brattleboro, Vermont.
The Bennington pottery first produced richly swirled clay knobs in the mid 1800s. Paired with small rosettes or back plates, they make a stately, yet understated period style door set. The durable glazed knobs were firmly fastened to a solid iron shank in antique iron finish.

Durdle Door is a natural limestone arch on the 'Jurassic Coast' near Lulworth in Dorset. Hard layers of Portland limestone have been folded on this part of the coast so that they appear almost vertical and these form the seaward edge of the small promontory seen here, that includes Durdle Door.
The impressive natural arch of Durdle Door formed due to the effect of the erosive power of the sea on the vertical layers of different types of rock. At some point in the past the sea would have begun to breach the hard Portland limestone and form a string of caves along the coast. The much softer rocks behind would have quickly been eroded away creating caves and natural arches. Eventually the arches collapsed leaving stacks, which would in turn be broken and washed away by the power of the waves.
Durdle Door is part of only a small strip of hard Portland limestone that is left here. The remnants of old arches can still be seen in the form of 'stumps' of limestone only just visible in the waves. One day that is all that will remain of Durdle Door.
