I found myself driving through the south of Italy and veering off the highway when the sun got good. Often I would find a door to my liking. My favorite door is the blue/brown one. It’s the blue and brown together and the age. Everything has age in Italy and the doors are no exception. In Japan we might call this wabi-sabi. The red door is off its hinge and this makes it even better. In fact 10 minutes after I photographed the door a couple of guys drove up and boarded it up! Imagine, the door was probably off its hinge for quite some time. I nicknamed this portion of the trip, “di porta in porta” which is Italian for “from door to door.”
