[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
There used to be one on virtually every door in Greece. Now with the advent of plastic to replace wood they are rapidly disappearing. The preservation, in visual form, of disappearing culture is, perhaps, one of our jobs as photographers.

bonjour Phil,
J'aime vraiment cette piece d'oeuvre d'art en voie de disparition malheureusement.
Mais heureusement que tu as capté ce bijoux!
Il sera immortalisé.
Bien vu,

I like this old door knocker with an appropriate environment. It's witness of time! Textures and colors are great.
Thank to share with us Phil!
Best regards.

I love these curious designs from times and places far away. I wonder what it looks like under all of that paint.
I posted a workshop to show a grey version.

I love the door handles.
