A brown horse with a warm chestnut coat is peering curiously out of its stable. The stable door consists of long, vertical, translucent plastic strips hanging down like a curtain – the kind often used as fly screens or weather protection in barns. These thick, slightly weathered, semi-transparent strips (light beige to pale greyish) hang closely side by side from the top of the doorway, reaching almost down to the ground. The horse has pushed its head through the middle of them, parting the strips to the left and right like curtains. Only the horse’s head and the very top of its neck are visible between the hanging strips. You can see its white blaze on the forehead. The ears are pricked forward, showing interest or attention. The large dark eye is clearly visible, looking straight toward the camera. The mane is black and slightly tousled. In front of the doorway lies golden-yellow straw bedding, scattered across the ground. The whole scene has a calm, slightly rustic farm atmosphere.

View of the Counter Service sandwich shop on West 14th Street in New York. An enormous yellow sign extends from the second to the fourth floor of a building facade, displaying simply the word “SANDWICHES” above a huge black arrow pointing down at a door at sidewalk level. The door is surrounded by frosted glass windows on which the word “Sandwiches” is repeatedly printed in a row. Some of the interior of the shop can be glimpsed through a clear section of the glass. The store is flanked by a Five Guys restaurant and a wine shop, under the upper levels of facades in different architectural styles. Various people stand on the sidewalk waiting for their bus, most notably a woman wearing a long white coat, white headphones, and white sneakers and carrying a black-and-white striped bag. A delivery worker on a bicycle whizzes by in the foreground, fuzzy with motion blur.

My black and white photo of a set of double wooden doors with metal studs and hinge detail inside an alcove with pale grey stones. It has a heavy metal grilled window on each side and an open metal gate. Above the door are the words, Siervas de Jesús de la caridad.

Apartment door with a makeshift gate and several handwritten informative signs that say things like: Do not disturb No drugs sold here No public restrooms Please knock for deliveries Thieves steal things

Photo of a narrow corridor ending at a door that leads outside, on the street. The light of a street lamp reaches inside, along with blue hints of dawn. Two bicycles are hanging above the door. A grocery carrier, a backpack and some more objects are left aside. Heat and electricity panels, new and old.

Photo of the front of a brownstone apartment building, taken from street level looking slightly up and at an angle. Rows of tall rectangular windows reflect a blue sky with clouds and some trees across the way. To the left, steps flanked by iron banisters lead up to a black arched door under an elaborate arched pediment. The window closest to camera is framed by the vivid red leaves of a Japanese maple in the apartment’s front yard. The image is dominated by warm tones of red and brown.

A two-story stone building with a steeply pitched roof is shown, appearing to be a storefront or small house. The exterior walls are constructed entirely of irregularly shaped, tan and brown stones. There are four windows visible, two on each floor, each with white frames. A bright blue wooden door is centered on the ground floor, flanked by windows on either side, and a small sign hangs above it. The number "306" is visible above the door. The windows feature curtains and various objects displayed inside, suggesting a lived-in or business space. Small flower boxes are attached beneath some of the windows. The building is situated on a paved road with landscaping visible on the sides. A sign in the right window reads "Barber Styling" in white lettering.

A red front door with art deco style glass panels. A seasonal wreath hangs from a wreath hanger. Some pumpkins are still on the porch to the side of the door.

A front door to a home. It's made of copper and is sort of a starburst, with a series of concentric half-circles emanating out from the keyhole, of varying textures and sizes. It's absolutely stunning. On the porch you can see some pumpkins on either side of the door.

A stone archway frames the scene, covered in lush green ivy vines that drape over its curved top. On the left side of the arch hangs a vintage black lantern with a yellow bulb, marked with the number "1." Through the arch, a cobblestone pathway leads into a sunny courtyard. Ahead stands a traditional half-timbered building in German style, with white plaster walls crisscrossed by dark wooden beams forming geometric patterns. A large, open wooden gate with a zigzag design in reddish-brown slats reveals a small arched doorway beyond. The ground is paved with uneven gray cobblestones, dotted with patches of grass, and sunlight casts soft shadows, creating a quaint, historic atmosphere.

Photo of five large carved pumpkins on the steps in front of a blue, paneled exterior door in a brownstone building. The carvings are all images of a young, smiling bearded man (NYC’s new Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani) in various whimsical scenarios: as the face of the Statue of Liberty; as Santa Claus; ripping open his shirt Superman-style to reveal a big “Z” underneath.
