Letting the light in

I spent two days exploring Dubrovnik's old town before I even took my camera. Getting oriented with the walled city is not time intensive; it is small, and one can easily make their way around in a matter of hours. But it takes more than that to explore the areas where tourists do not tread.

This exploration lead me to appreciate some of Dubrovnik's old doors and windows. I do not know why these specifically caught my eye; maybe it was the way they are constructed, or the fact that some of them are boarded up, keeping the light out permanently. One of the doors I focused my attention on was covered in swastikas and upside-down crosses, and looked like it had been that way for many years.

Following is a short series of doors and windows - those openings that let the light in.
