While wandering the streets of Italy,
I discovered a new obsesssion-
windows and doors.
I don’t know what it is about them,
but they have quickly become one of my favorite things to photograph.
Perhaps it’s their bright colors,
and unique detail,
drawing me in,
and forcing me (with little struggle) to fall in love.
Whatever the reason,
I can’t complain.
Sometimes, in this life, it is the little things.
This new found appreciation has inspired a new series on this little blog of mine-
windows and doors…
Whenever I travel somewhere new,
I will share these gateways, openings, and in some cases, works of art, with all of you.
I decided to start with my own village here in Germany-
Benediktbeuern.
And, perfect timing.
Summer in Bavaria means flowers,
and lots and lots of color!
anyone else share this obsession?
Beautiful! And yes, I love to find doors and windows with character. You found some great ones!
Love the idea Bailey! The flower boxes and shutters have always been one of my favorite things about Europe, particularly Germany. And I love the Bavarian shutters 🙂
They are quite amazing, I can see why they were photo worthy!
the windows with blue & white shutters are stunning. i really enjoyed these photos!

I love how much more character doors and windows have in Europe! I just moved to a new village here in France and each evening a take a little stroll looking around at all of the different ones 🙂
Those blue and white striped shutters are fantastic!

Lovely! Windows (especially in Europe) have so much character and appeal. It is amazing how something so simple can be so altering to the appearance of an entire house. Your pictures are great 🙂
