Door Obsession In Three Places Full of Wonder Including NYC and Cuba

New York City, Featured

 

“Be an opener of doors.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Obama Opened Doors to Cuba after 56 Years” was the headline in USA Today while I was looking at my plane tickets to Havana.  I find myself always taking photographs of doors abroad and even in New York City, my stomping ground during the week. I stroll up and down the streets, marveling at their beauty while wondering what lies behind.

The architecture in Havana left me breathless.  I was invited to browse around some homes, only because our tour guide knew all of the locals. I could fill up an entire book with photographs. But for you I selected some of my absolute favorite doors from New York City and Havana. I also added in some doors from Cape Cod for good measure.

“I feel very adventurous. There are so many doors to be opened, and I’m not afraid to look behind them.”
― Elizabeth Taylor
