A photo is hiding here: one doorway, two views

Your next photo might already be on your usual walk.

One doorway. Two views.

  1. Notice: a door, plant or patch of colour.
  2. Take a wide photo: include the surroundings.
  3. Try a closer view: keep what caught your eye.

Which view tells the story you wanted? Any phone works. Stay on public paths and respect people's privacy.
