Newfoundland Interesting Doors and Doorways
Newfoundland Interesting Doors and Doorways
I’ve always been attracted to doors and windows, and have wondered what’s behind them. When I have the opportunity, I like to photograph them open, so I can discover a little of their secrets…
I had a post on doors in St. John’s Newfoundland Canada, but those were city doors.
While visiting the coast of Newfoundland, I was attracted by fisherman’s barns and shacks, along with the fishing tools and the surrounding environment. I also found some interesting open doors. Click on the pictures to see more from the original galleries.
This is an open door of a traditional wooden fishing shack in Northeast side of Newfoundland, Canada. You can see from outside in and from inside out – so, no “unknowns” here 😉
I liked the fact that I could even see the water in the back and the anchored fishing boat.
Another open door was that of a fisherman shack in Triton Harbor, Newfoundland. This goes only one way: from inside out… You can however, also see the water, the pier and even some islands on the horizon.
Gros Morne National Park
Before entering the Gros Morne National Park, we spent two nights in a beautiful B&B old traditional house. The big terrace at the first floor was overlooking the ocean – lucky us 🙂
I liked the handmade rag carpet on wooden floor and the morning light coming through…
In the same house downstairs, another interesting door with a glass window was begging to be photographed… 🙂
When visiting the Gross Morne National Park, I mainly took photos of landscapes, nature and boats. But I couldn’t miss this semi-open door of a red barn in Trout River village:
Fogo Island
Fogo Island has many interesting fisherman houses, barns and shacks. One day I noticed this kid running through an opening that once was a door… Whatever his reason for running was, I will never know, but I took the shot.
Twillingate Newfoundland
Twillingate is another interesting fisherman village in the Northeast part of Newfoundland. It is said to be the place where you can best see the icebergs. We didn’t see them, but we did see some nice barns, shacks and lots of crab traps. I’ve seen and photographed a lot of those in Newfoundland and Nova Scotia.
I also saw this floating wrecked shack with guess what… an open door 🙂 ha, ha
Love your doorways photos, ALL of them. Great talent. I think of doorways as from the outside looking in or at but I can see there can be many perspectives .
Thank you Tammy 👍
That first photo is just stunning. I also like the rickety cabin in the last photo.
I can’t seem to register a like most of the time, the like button just doesn’t seem to load.
Thank you I. J. Khanewala so much for the comment and letting me know about the “like” button – Something it’s wrong with either the template I’m using, or the slowness of the site, or who knows – it happened before. I’ll ask the creators of the template (theme). Thank you again.
love all the doors
All of these photos have great character. So glad you took them and shared them.
Thank you msjadeli ! ?
I really like the open door photography where you can see not only what is within the door but what is beyond it.
I guess it’s the photographer’s curiosity ?
Doors and doorways that tickle the imagination; very nice post!
Thank you Irene – I really like your comment! ?
Wonderful idea to photograph the water behind the doors, that creates dreaming moods!
Thank you so much Ilka – sometimes I like to play and go with the camera through spaces to reveal more on the other side… yeah… it’s not that much about doors, but about exploring let’s say… 🙂
