Door #4 - Oaxaca, Mexico

Two things draw me to photos like this one from Oaxaca, Mexico. The first is the color. Ansel Adams I am not. I love vibrant color. The second is the odd asymmetry of this picture. Symmetry can certainly be beautiful, but as Mona Lisa taught us, asymmetry is intriguing.

LOVE this one!!! And for all the reasons you note — the blue, the asymmetry, the beautiful wood. Lovely!

The blue is so vivid! Love the asymmetry of the wooden door. I wish I had a door like this!
