Weekly Photo Challenge: Frames of the World
I love this week’s photo challenge: Frame. I’m sharing three of my favorite travel photos.
Oman
We woke up early after a splendidly silent night in Wahiba Sands. The sun wasn’t quite above the horizon. I opened the door within a door at the entrance to our desert camp and found two amazing views in the frame — a woodcarving that told its own story and a landscape that holds a thousand years of stories I’ll never know.
Bhutan
This bridge had me at hello. With hundreds of colorful prayer flags, all I wanted to do was watch and wait to see who walked through the wood frame at the other side.
Myanmar
Sometimes when you’re traveling there’s a moment of beauty that catches you completely by surprise. This was one of them, at one of the thousands of temples in Bagan. The tall doorway and ironwork framed this man perfectly, who was contentedly out for an afternoon sweep.
Beautiful click

Gorgeous shots! That one in Oman is the best capture I’ve yet seen on this week’s challenge. Superb! There’s a famous Western movie called “The Searchers” and the first shot is a door opening on the Arizona desert. So much like your picture.

All three are beautiful photos, but I agree with Jo – the first one is so mysterious.

Gorgeous photos! I really like the composition of the first one…a beautifully carved door leading to a vast expanse of land. Do you stay in or go out to explore?

Explore! Always explore! The morning was cool, with fog. But the sun came up eventually so we took the sleds, climbed the hill and slid down the dunes. So much fun! Thanks for your comment!
