This is so cool! A few years back I got all into shooting doors and windows! Here you have focused on the ornate doorknob , what a clever entry for this contest! You have brought out every detail in the doorknob and mounting plate. I can almost feel the texture of the knob , I like this and I bet it could even be opened wearing gloves because of the way it is textured!
This is of course, well focused, this image is clear, exposure is correct, colors and tones appear true. Well composed and presented!
Very best wishes to you in this contest!

Great entry. Something different and unusual for a contest entry.

I love the angle, the crop, the details, the old door.

I think this could be a winner.

A fine entry for the contest. Very apt.Out-of-the-box thinking! Fine composition, soft colours and very good light make this first-rate. Good luck!

I love this photo! The angle is perfect, it's eye catching, and the detail of the door knob is so perfect. It tells a story, it begs the question - what is behind the door? Or who?

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine and classical composition offers us an enjoyable view of that venerable knob. Textures, colours and tones are good. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

This is a beautiful ornate doorknob attached to the door as a display. The knob is relief impression darkly finished, attached to a relief molded plate. This looks cool and maybe both molded brass. Very classy brass piece. Thank you for sharing and good luck in the contest. Ray

Lovely Mixed Photography. The ornate knob and info are interesting. The door actually looks antique too and somewhat like touches of paint applied.

Makes me feel good knowing there are still people who value craftsmanship and quality.

The door that it is affixed to is made of solid wood. They were heavy and when you slammed one people knew about it. The honeycomb sandwich doors just aren't the same - no mass.

Nicely framed composition in fine period colors.

Nice take ... Bob
