Love your eye for gorgeous, even if faded (evermoreso) beautiful windows, doors and architectural detail. I cherish our time in NYC, you pointing out all the buildings...and me just in awe of exactly how much I miss when walking with my head down. Yes! It was you who opened my eyes to design. Lovely pictures and even lovelier....Rumi. He is like a balm for the spirit. Miss you and can't wait to see you this year!!!

Lovely doorways. It almost looks like teapots on each of them. I wonder if that is a sign of hospitality?

I love doors. These are very special photos. I'm going to have to find out about those symbols- so interesting!
