I really, really wanted to do this challenge. Of course it was the last day, and I had nothing. No ideas, and I had missed so many challenges recently. :( (well, so many for me. :)

So I looked through the week to see if I had shot anything that I could shoehorn in.

I had done a photoshoot for a family on saturday. I had done a shoot for them 6 years ago and they wanted another one! Cool! I got distracted during the shoot when some pelicans flew over...



ok... actually, it flew over before they got there... anyway, I had some pelicans, and that's about it...

Wait!! I had a front door!!

Unfortunately, I shot the front door, didn't bother cleaning up all the junk around the right side, so I had to kinda had to make up the right side and the floor doesn't look quite right and there are other issues, and this and that... but anyway -- I learned my lesson -- don't be lazy when shooting!!! It creates way way more work in the post processing! :D

Thanks for all the great comments!

The water coming right up to the welcome mat, the open door, the bare floor that suggests, to me, an empty space, the birds, the tones - complicated and simple at once as the end would doubtless be. Voted earlier. Top five.

Hope it's still sand out in front, and not the middle of the ocean..

7 from me... It's believably done. Like the absence of color.

Fantastic shot, really well done.
I just don't understand the cracks in the wall going through the moldings.
Do sweat it this is on of my top picks.
