[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
We saided away
We walked 2 thousand miles
and then we slipped away
We looked so hard
But couldn't seem to find just what
the world was for
Now we know
Just what the journey's for

Looking out to the stars
Think about what you are
What do they think of you
Animals in their zoo
They haven't got the time
Landing's not on their minds
How do they have the nerve
We're animals in preserve

They watch us all
They're only making sure that we
don't trip and fall
They look so hard
But they can't tell us why they're
here and just what for
Because they don't know
Who opened up the door

How can we find out more
Who owns the keyless door
Where does the circle end
Who are the unwatched men
Where do we go from here
Faith is a fading fear
Life is a waiting room
I hope they don't call me soon

How much more do you really
think you know than a flower
does about who's behind the door!

-The band Zebra

This is an old double door in the old barn behind our house. This was taken around sunset, the doors facing west. It made me think of Zebra's song "Who's behind the door?"

The light is more than half the picture :-))) Looking at it it's almost like we are expecting something to happen in the next moment... Definitely a moody photo, but a powerful one. Even the tilt in the image adds to the mystery!
Good capture.

Such a beautiful shot and very touching note, Stephen!! They made a perfect match together as a very spiritual composition.
The effect of the light behind the door enhace the strong meaningful note. I just want to walk there and open that lightning door!!!
Congrats.
