Nice subject, i photograph old doors alot..
I'd like to see some more detail though, i'm not saying that i don't like the composition, cause i do, and i find it to be very coherent along the series, though i like to see the cracks on the wood, and the paint wearing off, etc, i like to see detail, and these old doors are certainly a very rich subject on that perspective. About color vs black and white, well, its not an easy decision, but sometimes i find color helps understanding texture better, though black and white, specially in high contrasts, makes it easier to work as a series, and sometimes add to the feeling of portraiting old subjects.
Still, i liked this, keep em coming!

thanks for your critique. some colors are too strong on these doors, they would draw the attention away from other parts. i don't think i will do more compilations like this in the future, my focus remains on single pictures.

dat problem is... ich hab die schon im raw converter s/w gemacht, und ich bin grad viel zu faul alles nochmal neu zu konvertieren

ich mach die s/w Konvertierung aus dem Grunde immer erst ganz am Schluss im Photoshop, und auch da nur als Einstellebene

I love old doors, they have so much character. The black and white adds to the character. Great collection.

Nice, I love this kind of style. I knew a guy who did this with petrol pumps once, during the petrol crisis

odd, but brilliant.... doors can seem so mundane but put together like that, it really works.

Coole Idee!
Ich hΓ€tte nur versucht, die TΓΌrschwelle immer auf eine HΓΆhe zu bringen. Besonders in der oberen Reihe fΓ€llt das auf. Ich weiΓ, ist sicher net einfach mit den wohl eher unterschiedlich hohen TΓΌren, aber wΓΌrde mir trotzdem besser gefallen.
Naja, auf jeden Fall ein

das mit den tΓΌrschwellen is ne gute idee, oder generell ein element immer auf der gleichen hΓΆhe haben. next time...
