Asher I have been too busy to drop you a few lines but here I am now.
If anyone is to blame that one is just me who gave up to the suggestion of removing the door.
Now, at this moment I consider it should be there but if it is not anymore, let it rest in peace and I will keep it this way: no door
Small details make great picture yes, but OK it is not this detail in particular which is so relevant that deserves to be "re-constructed" to re-establish the integrity of the image.
More and more, I tend to keep my images in "stand by" only for my eyes for a couple of days, and only then I can change it or even drag it to the bin like I have done sometimes.
It does happen to everyone that after this period of incubation we see details that have always been there and we were not seing them.
It happened to me during my professional life of course.
In the appreciation of this image one should consider that it doesn't appear by itself - alone - but in a set/theme/project/collection under the title "Urban Decay".
I do have already a few of them counting this one among them. But I am building a body of work under this theme. And to do so, I need time. Time and opportunity to get the photos at the right time of the day and at the right place.
I have never been a theoretical guy. I am very practical but time gave me a certain way to see things which is of my own. Obvious isn't it ? LOL
