Photo tour: Doors of Mt. Airy
One of the nice things about Mt. Airy is seeing the variety of homes that one can find within a ten-minute walk. In this case, it was the doors on the homes and businesses in Mt. Airy that caught our attention.
It is doors that create the barrier between our homes and the outside world. It is these panels with a few hinges that helps create our private worlds. The places we call home and where we are fully free to express ourselves and create lifelong bonds with those we love.
It is also the entryway in which we decide who comes in and who stays out. A world without doors is hard to imagine.
We would like to do more photo tours in Mt. Airy and Chestnut Hill, but we need your ideas. Suggest to us a theme that you would like us to capture in photos.
