Magnificent Monday — “Look Through Any Window, Door, or Archway”

October 31, 2011 By Nancie 11 Comments

Another Magnificent Monday is happening over at HolesinMySoles, and this week Jim has chosen the theme “Look through any window, door or archway”. I believe that your eyes are the windows to your soul, and that windows and doors are eyes to the world. I’m always looking for doors or windows to frame a shot, and here are a few of my favorites…

    These are very beautiful photos, Nancie. I especially love the way you framed the faces of Buddha and one of the Bayon faces.

    Here’s my Magnificent Monday entry: http://www.wander-if-you-must.com/2011/10/my-window-to-world.html.

    You will see we have something in common. 🙂 Hope you drop by.

      Thanks Reiza. The Bayon was one of my favorite temples at Angkor Wat; so much fun taking photos there.

    Intriguing selection of photos, Nancie. I like your statement about windows and doors being eyes to the world — so true.

      Thanks Cathy. We all spend so much time going through doors, and looking out of windows. Where would our world be without them, eh?

    It’s always fun to peek through an archway particularly if what it’s framing is as exotic as these.

    The Bayon Temple is a really special one for me, but they’re all so well done.

  • Cooking with Chef Chris today at Founders House in Annapolis Royal was amazing. All of the dishes used local ingredients. Our first course was fresh speckled trout (it was swimming this morning!) on beet and apple purée, pickled beets, garnished with fresh apple and drizzled with green oil. Delicious!!
