A door fit for a king, which indeed it is. You’ll find this door at the Grand Palace in Bangkok. The image was shot on film way back when Kodak was a great company. Remember those days? No internet, no mobile phones, no avalanche of digital information. It was a time when travel could induce feelings of awe and wonder. We even read books then, fancy that!
My contribution to this weeks WP photo challenge, vivid. And to Norm’s Thursday doors. And a bit to whining in general
Freddy's Photo Project 
You nailed two projects with one photo – love it! Yes, I remember those days. I think some people refer to them as the ‘good old days.’ 🙂 What I really remember is the anticipation of getting the photos back after development and looking to see what the results where.
Thank you! The concept of the Good Old Days is, alas, a sign of age I believe (at least in myself). But then, some aspects of the good old days were better weren’t they?
Two for the price of one – I love it! And all of the intricate details in that door are just stunning. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Thanks. It’s a bit like a door from a fairy tale, isn’t it?
Good job on scoring a twofer 🙂 That’s a beautiful door.
Thanks! It’s a great door – if you are a king. A bit over the top for my humble abode 🙂
Somehow I miss those old days…Except for the fact that now is cheaper for me!!!
Do you know something? I still read books!!! Yes!!! I use public transpportation and always take a book with me!!! I love it!!! 🙂 🙂
I use public transport too, even though I own a car. In Stockholm, it’s just a hassle to drive. There are very few that read books on public transport here. If people read, it’s the free newspaper ‘Metro’. I do cart a book around, but somehow the smartphone seems to be in my hand more than the book. I’m working on changing this.
BTW: the door is great!!! I bet the whole city is great! You are very lucky!!!
Thanks! Thailand and Bangkok are fond memories although it is now many years since I lived there or visited.
wow! so much work and beauty 🙂
Yes, and it’s all made by hand. It must have taken skilled artisans a lot of time to decorate the Grand Palace.
