The Red Door


The Red Door

Five Years ago, when I was thirteen, I went to London with my parents. Our B&B was in a calm part of the city called Highgate. During the long everyday trips, I looked at each door. I had to have a photo of each, just like people who collect stamps. For each one, I found a subtitle or a description: one was grass-green, the other sky-blue, or yellow like a lemon.
