Michael Ventura Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Many thanks again for the votes for my ER doc photo, lots of deserving photos in that challenge. This month's challenge is, "Doors and Windows". I am sure most of you have photos in their collection that could fit the bill. I am looking for creative and interesting photos taken of or through all sorts of doors and windows (except the Microsoft kind and the old rock band kind 😀). Here are a few of mine as examples. Can't wait to see what you have!! As usual, up to three photos per person and all have to be on Alamy. Entries will close on Feb 28th at midnight New York time. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan Sorry about it being too broad, I think we need to keep it to the top three of either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we still allowed to mix and match three images of windows and doors? Say two of one and one of another. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spacecadet Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 (edited) Allan's right. Three is hard. Ed, this one is through the window of La Antigua Abaceria in Seville. If you didn't get there I'm sure it would have been on your list😉 Edited February 8, 2021 by spacecadet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sally Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 (edited) Congratulations on your win Michael. I think you have given yourself a tough one to select a shortlist! I had about 1,000 images just tagged ‘door’ or ‘window’ so not easy to choose. But a good topic. Number 1: did you know that the word ‘window’ derives from ‘wind door’? You can see why from this photo. An old merchant’s house in Leith, Edinburgh. Number 2: this pub just had to be called this, didn’t it? Number 3: there are a lot of wonderful doors in Edinburgh.

John Mitchell Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Well-deserved win, Michael. Congratulations. Great challenge. I'm addicted to photographing doors and windows, so too many too choose from. But here goes...

gvallee Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Congrats on your well deserved win Michael. I didn't have any Covid pic but over 300 doors and windows.

I open the image's page and right click on a blank space right next to the preview image. I then click on "View Page Info" in the drop-down menu, copy the URL with "/comp/" in it and paste it into the "Insert image from URL" box in my forum post (bottom right). Works every time. P.S. I'm using Firefox. Edited February 9, 2021 by John Mitchell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
