Doorway to heaven?
Today is September 1st and like on the 1st of each month it's a City daily photo blog theme day. And the theme of today is... Doorways. There are plenty of nice doorways in Paris, of course, but I chose this one which is the artists entrance to... The Moulin Rouge. Much less appealing than the real entrance but much more original (And sooooooooo Parisian Wako!).
42 Daily Photo sites are participating in this theme today. Please use the links to below to visit them. Due to time zone differences and other factors, the theme photo may not be displayed until later if you are viewing early in the day.

Hi Eric. Love your choice of doorway - real thought went into it...love being taken on a otur to the stage door with you!
ReplyDeletePS It's currently 8.31 am in Sydney, and your clock shows 12.31 am, so looks like at the moment we are 8 hours ahead of you in Paris, to answer your question from yesterday.
ReplyDeleteGood morning then Sally!
ReplyDeleteGreat shot! Thanks for sharing this great door.
ReplyDeleteAhh.... if that door could talk...
ReplyDeleteCool door, by the way. Sorry, couldn't resist :)
Thanks Sally from Sydney ;)
ReplyDeleteEric, if you post each day at the same time -around midnight- your clock is weird as some day its reads 12.03 and some day 00.03...
Anyway, on s'en fout, et bravo for today's doorway. Le Moulin Rouge... Can't wait to see our Nicole K. rushing out, singing and caughing...
It's a nice door.
ReplyDeleteCould you show us a sneak peak from the inside...?
Just kidding.
Very funny and original post.
ReplyDeleteif that is the door to Moulin Rouge, I agree is the dorr to heaven. hehehe.
ReplyDeleteGreetings from Perú
Interesting "back" entrance. The showgirls can even have a Quick burger before going onstage by the looks of the sign nearby. Wouldn't be good for their figures though I guess!
ReplyDeleteI thought the door to heaven was on a cloud, with little angels flying by in the mist and a white-bearded old man holding a key. It seems that is only a simple brown door next to a burger house. I wonder how the doorman looks like.
ReplyDeleteGreetings from Athens to all of you.
Very Paris I would think. Thanks Eric
ReplyDeletehe he he . . .pandering to Wako, are you! Thanks for this inside look. Is this a door someone from the general public might see, or must one have special permission to be in that area? Thanks Eric,
ReplyDelete-Kim
Kim - Everybody can see it from the boulevard, but it's really conceiled.
ReplyDeletejust love the iron grill work on it :)
ReplyDeletevery charming =)
ReplyDeleteMichael : I'm surprised you made no comment about the text on the Quick sign : "Nous c'est le goût", in relation with the artists of Le Moulin Rouge. I'm sure you might think about something spicy… Unless you've decided lately to avoid "skuds" and turn politically correct !
ReplyDelete;o)
Cool doorway Eric! And I love the design of the iron grill too :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice doorway. Love the color :)
ReplyDeleteI love the doorways in Paris and in all of France that I have thus seen. This pic has very good composition. I want to put my photo next to my comment but I don't know how to do it. If someone in cyberland can tell me, please email me. jwp3937@Yahoo.com
ReplyDeletewow! this entrance make me dream...:-)
ReplyDeleteps: we are partecipating to the DP theme too :-)
I love the idea of that common theme for all city daily photo blogs. And, yes, if that door could talk...
ReplyDeletemy dad LOVES taking pictures of doorways.....when we went on vacation to italy, my brother and i would notice that he wasn't with us, turn around, and 50 feet behind us, he would be taking pictures of doorways.....
ReplyDeletethey really are beautiful and someone mentioned that they wish this door could talk...i agree! imagine what doors have seen all these years......
Eric, thanks for this exclusive.
ReplyDeleteBonjour!
ReplyDeleteWandered into your site from the Singapore's daily photo site.
Great pic! when I think of Moulin Rouge, I will think of my fav artist Toulouse Lautrec.

RATS! No room for "battery" comments here! LOL! Ahhh Eric, you just know me too well..and we haven't even MET! ;-)
ReplyDeleteThis door is perfect...looks so French! Can I start missing Paris again too?
Oh, by the way, I have a door on my DP too....I didn't get my "I-wanna-join-TOO!" link in on time...in the big link list thingy...and it's all HAM'S FAULT! Naaaaaaah, just joshin! I think I need to replace the batteries in my secretary...she's slacking in her job to keep me blog/forum-updated! Have an awesome day everyone!(=
LOL gg...no, I'm never politically correct, but sometimes I say "cool" too much! I hadn't noticed the text, but you sure did!
ReplyDeleteLove the dark wood and fancy work over the window of the door! Is that iron work, Eric?
ReplyDeleteThanks Eric. I see now that it's an exterior door. From the lighting I thought it was indoors. I just noticed the street sign. I hadn't noticed the name on the street sign until Barbscoot's comment. I wonder. . .?! ;^)
ReplyDelete(Barb- you might check out renting someone's apartment, as well as checking hotels. You might find just what you want at a more affordable price and a few more ammenities for the kids.)
Eric, this theme put me in mind to request something: if you get over to the Musee Rodin sometime, could you give us your take on "The Gates of Hell"? Thanks!
