This old door is on the home of one of Tracy's early Masonic leaders. Their solid values and dedication to community service have become one of my family's values also. These values have made a significant contribution to our "Home Sweet Home".

Annida,
Thanks for the kind words on my pfoto "Family Values". I left the flag as a kind of subliminal message, I would have never been forgiven by my family if I had left it out completely. Oh, by the way it has been my home for about 24 years.
Keep up the good work and have fun1

The most fascinating thing about this picture is the story. I just wish sometimes that we could see the blurb during voting, but then it wouldn't be fair :) Ah well..
About the photograph: I think the tones of the wood, and the texture have been captured superbly. I like the lighting on the door knob, which brings out the markings on it to perfection. I also think the "oldness" of the door knob, and the door adds beautifully to the picture. Personally, I think the top right hand corner detracts from the picture greatly. I think if you had cropped that section out, the picture would have much more impact.
Does this Photograph fit the challenge? Yes, it does. It fits nicely. Congratulations :)
super pic, i really like this shot, I think your use of DOF and lighting highlights the marking on the door handle which I think is what you wanted, It works.
This shot is really cool. But what is that blue stripey thing in the pper right hand corner. That is really distracting. I would have cropped the top off. Nice texture and lighting.
