[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This was taken while we were in Rome back in November 2004. This doorway was located in the the old roman forum and i was struck by the fact that everything around it had eroded and the door still stood firm.

Hi Scott,
Really fine shot. I like your composition with the door off to the left. The details of the door and muted color make this an interesting shot with that old world look.
Regards, Mike

Hi Scott,
Interesting subject, Rome must be full of architectural gems, is that a compass and dividers on the door?
Kind Regards
Steve

Hi Scott,
The columns either side of the door have a greco look about them, really interesting. The doors look like their made of copper which has coloured over time, I don't know if this is the case but the colour gives that effect. Well spotted.
Gan canny man,
Gavin...
