I can never look at pictures of old doors without wondering EXACTLY where on the planet the keys are now..... Nice detail and texture.

I'm gonna use this as a wallpaper anyway. This is probably one of the most striking shots I've seen from you, Motts!

Mr Motts, when I get my new PINK laptop, I believe I will try to use this as a wallpaper. I lLOVE it. I think it would look great framed and on my chic room wall.

I love this shot - I'm fascinated by vines and trees growing around things that were once in everyday use...As usual, Motts, this is a fantastic photo essay of an incredible find...

everyone calls you Motts so i'm assuming that is your last name? i'm curious, when did you first get into photography? you really do have quite a talent. I enjoy it as well, but definetely an amatuer. I would like to find people in my city that are into it as well.

first thing i thought of was, who had painted the door al those years ago... seeing al his work is being slowly taken over by nature...

I am constantly floored by your perspectives on these once magnificent buildings and grounds. The simplest photo can be so thought-provoking. You take these neglected giants and make them awesome, beautiful again. I am grateful for your visions for finding beauty in urban decay.

Nature always wins. It might take 10,000 years, but at the end of the day, nature will emerge victorious.
