Do their faces say, "Beware! Don't come any closer?" or is this the face they use to say, "Ya'al come on in!" There's no signage to indicate what this place might be, but if you look closely you can see that once you go through these doors there are more doors inside. Worthy of some stories for sure.

A perfect choice. Looks 1880s-90s. Could it be a mom & pop door shop?
ReplyDeleteIt's a great photograph. She is saying come on in, but I fear he is saying " on your way, stranger"
ReplyDeleteI don't think those are doors behind doors. I think those are drawers behind doors.
ReplyDeleteThere's a door handle inside. You can see it in the lower right pane on the left door.
DeleteAnother good example of the 'hazards' of cropping - you miss the whole story!
ReplyDeleteHe looks ready to draw a gun!
ReplyDeleteTheme-perfect photo! I like the reflection on the glass.

Neither of them look too friendly to me. Not sure what that is on the left, either on the window or inside - is it a bottle in a wicker basket?
ReplyDeleteThey both look rather uncomfortable in front of the camera, but what an intriguing shot.
ReplyDeleteYes, he does seem a bit standoffish, and she rather reminds me of someone in my own family. I do like this doorway too!
ReplyDeleteIt's a great photo.
ReplyDeleteI think we tend to forget that this generation wasn't brought up to 'smile for the camera'.
