This week the topic is Buildings. You can take a photo of any kind of building. As long as there is a door in the building, not necessarily in your photo, it counts as a building. You building can consist of anything from an old shack that is close to tumbling to the fanciest tallest skyscraper.
Also, if your building highlights a door or doors, it will also fit into Norm’s, Thursday Doors challenge for this week.
I hope you have some fun with this challenge. I am eager to see what everyone comes up with this week. I just want you to have some fun with your photography.
Feel free to dig around in your archives for photos if you don’t have anything new you can photograph.

That abandoned building is quite unique. I like the the way that the doors and windows jut out and add texture to the plane of the outside wall.
