This Tiny Threshold has Binge Hinge Energy! 💪🏻🚪 It's so cool, it's ice cold ❄️ for #doorsday

What's behind the this door? Second breakfast? Kinda! 🥞 This is a "Ghiacciaia". Essentially an outdoor fridge freezer. This place would be packed with ice or snow and used to keep food cold. We're talking meat, milk, vegetables, that half bag of oven chips in the back of the freezer we all have - everything. The palazzo where this Ghiacciaia resides is Palazzo Zani and it was built in 1594. The Ghiacciaia itself however was built sometime in the 1800's. So, between 1594 and sometime in the 1800's they probably had a Indesit or something. ✨

The photo is of a rustic stone archway with a small wooden door. It is partially overgrown with ivy, leading to a dark underground passage. The small wooden door is weathered and open showing dimly lit interior. Behind the stone archway in the background are lush green trees.The photo shows the interior of the ghiacciaia. It's a circular, stone-walled chamber. The walls are made of rough, uneven stones, and there's a small opening in the ceiling letting in a bit of light.  The floor is made of packed earth.  Two small lights are placed on the floor near the wall, illuminating part of the space.The photo is a dimly lit, narrow chamber within a stone structure. The walls are made of rough, uneven stones - just like the bigger chamber. It looks like a narrow passageway but is actually a chamber and leads nowhere. There are recessed lights in the ground that light the way.

I couldn’t abstain from posting these glass doors for #doorsday...

Scan of an analogue photo taken about 20 years ago!

A Deadlocked Door? Neigh! A Fetlocked Door! 🐎 🚪 for #doorsday

(I am well aware that this is a horrifically bad pun. It's so hard to come up with door puns, let alone horse-door puns. Have some mercy 😂)

A cute little door from one of the side streets in the centre. It's a very narrow street and a very narrow door! You don't often see green doors around here, so it does stand out! There's a close-up of the horse door knocker too! ✨

I'm no horse anatomist but a fetlock is essentially a horse ankle. Thanks to the Eurovision contestants Fr. Ted and Fr. Dougal for the inspiration. 🎶

The photo is a close-up view of a doorway set into a pale yellow stucco wall. The door is dark green colour with the top half that has a glass pane. Through the glass pane there is some floral paper covering the glass from the inside. Under the glass is a metal door knocker in the shape of a horse head surrounded by a horse shoe. There is a old weathered sticker on the door of open hands underneath the glass panel.and the door knocker. Above the door is a half-circle, segmented window set into the wall.This photo is a close up of the dark green door with a horseshoe-shaped door knocker featuring a horse's head. Below the knocker is a partially torn sticker depicting two hands with leaves at the base of the palms, which appear palm forward to the viewer. The sticker is a white colour.

Hideaway / Il Nascondiglio for #doorsday

There are so many secrets behind closed doors. However! This weekend in Bologna there is "Diverdeinverde" where a lot of the hidden and/or private gardens open up to visitors for a few hours. Expect lots of flower and garden photos soon. (At least I hope!! 💐) ✨

The photo is of a doorway with ornate metal gates on either side of the doorframe leading to a sunlit courtyard garden. The courtyard has a curved stone pathway, balustrades, greenery, and there is a bicycle parked on the right hand side. There is a big contrast between outside and inside. The outside is all sunlit but the inside is black and shadowy.

"Wood You Be Able to Handle Another Drink? I'm Pining Fir One!" 🚪 🍹 For #doorsday

There's nothing better than an outdoor summer bar! This is my favourite of last year's - Camporella at Villa Serena. Great food, music, drinks and my favourite - twinkling fairy lights everywhere! 🕯️ After a hard day of escaping the July heat in the crypts of the cemetery, you can go and sit in a comfy chair, have a drink and relax. (I have actually done this! 😂)✨

#photography #amateurphotography #door #urban #city #doorphotography #outdoors #bar #bologna #travel #casalecchio #explore #pun #punny #relax #evening #porta #portadì #italia #citta #summer #urbanarchitecture #travel #europe
The photo is of an old, weathered light coloured door. It is outside and is leaning up against a tree. There are fairy lights around the outside edges of the door and the top frame of the door is a chalkboard. In the inside it displays "Camporella" the name of the bar and also says the opening times are from 6pm to 12am every evening. Behind the door there are blurred figures sitting and standing and you can see some of the rustic furniture of the bar.

Count (Do)Orlock for #doorsday 🦇 🧛‍♀️

I realize I didn't do a great job of showing the lights going on and off in the last post because it's quite difficult to scroll through the pictures quickly. So, I've learned a new skill and made a bad GIF! I promise to now retire (Do)Orlock, for a bit. 😂 (The rest of this post is the same as the previous one!)

This door is one of the side doors from the Collegio di Spagna - part of the University of Bologna and operational since the 14th century. It is a college for Spanish Students and it is the oldest in the world open to foreign students. (More on this cool building later!)
I spent more time on this than I care to admit and how I arrived at this magnum opus/possible cry for help has been surprising - even for me. 😂 I would love your opinions on in the comments!
I hope you like it and it makes you smile! ✨

Watch his hand!)

A black and white photo of the wall of a building from a street. On the left hand side there is a small arched window. On the right hand side an vaulted door with studs on it. in the foreground between the window and door is a small bollard at street level.The same scene as previous. This time there is a tall, pale faced man (Count Orlock from Nosferatu) standing in the doorway with his hand on a light switch.Nearly exactly the same scene as before but darker. This time his hand is lower down as he has flipped the light switch off.This is a repeat of the second photo. Count Orlock holding the lightswitch in the on position. The scene is back to being bright.

Looking Wist(eria)fully... for #doorsday 🪻

Door with a lovely long haircut in the centre of Bologna - Peter, I imagine, was reminiscing about when he had ̶h̶a̶i̶r̶, I mean, wisteria. ✨

(This joke got his seal of approval before posting! 😂✨ It's just playful banter!)

Porta Castiglione for #Doorsday

🤓"But that's not a door, you f*cking idiot!"
Well, in Italian it is. Porta = Door. So, if you have any problems with that - take it up with the country of Italy.
Porta Castiglione was first built in the middle of the 13th century and then given a spruce in the 15th century. Back in the day, it was part of the city walls used to protect the centre - it was a machiocolated rampart (which means it was used for defensive purposes to keep undesirables out). Thankfully, it's not used for that purpose anymore, so now I can live here. ✨

🎶 Come on, Baby, Light my Fire 🔥 🎶 - T̶h̶e̶ D̶o̶o̶r̶s̶ This Door #Doorsday

There was a little accident and a car caught fire and damaged the door. (Nobody was hurt, everyone is fine! ♥️). It happened a while ago - they just haven't replaced the door -
Must have known Doorsday was coming! 🤭

Want to See Mordor? Sorry, More Door? #doorsday

No, this little door is not in the Shire. We're in Giardini Margherita in Bologna. This little hut is a reconstruction of a Villanovian dwelling. The Villanovians (900-550 BCE) are the first Etruscan inhabitants of the Bologna we know today. This is probably also the only house in Bologna that AirB&B don't have their grubby little hands on... yet.
