The old door is an interesting sample in wood carving. Goes to establish the universal fact that historically, culturally and from the point of view of religion, doors have occupied a major place in the Indian consciousness and its expression in art forms.
That the door is really massive is shown by the Judas gate in it.
A well documented picture, Lakshmi. The old man sitting by the side of the door complements its appeal.
Thanks for sharing this picture.

lakshmi,
well composed and nice texture in this shot. good dof and thus a lot of details to explore in this shot.

A fantastic picture. I can't immagine changing anything about it. The black and white gives it precisely the feel it needs. It's got a very timely feel to it. The large door and the smnal door. Which door is meant for the old man? Great pic.
