Orange doors: Marfa
I saw these fantastic doors along West Lincoln Street, just west of Highland Avenue. In deference to regular readers of my blog, I am posting the black and white version first: I don’t want to startle anyone.
But I just couldn’t resist the color version. Check out that orange!

I was surprised to see the orange. Surprised and pleased. The other colours work well with it, too I think.
(I found you via El feo…)

Thanks – the color is a bit of a departure from what I usually post, but sometimes a photograph just WANTS to be in color!
Thanks for letting me know how you found my blog – I always wonder how people find me!

Ooops! ‘El Bueno…’ Sorry, Ron. I’m a bit ‘feo’ myself.

I agree, these doors want to be in colour. I like the blue tones in the pavement too.
What do you suppose the small locked door is for? When I was growing up houses had a place like that for milk deliveries (unlocked). I think it was partly to keep the milk from going off in the summer and freezing in the winter. This one looks much bigger.

Just wait – there’s another color shot in the queue…
That small door caught my eye right away, before I noticed the orange, actually. I can’t even image what it’s for. Maybe it IS for milk, and high commodity prices made the lock a wise investment?
