Spanish Gate

Hot! In Nostalgia

Many homes in St. Augustine were built in the 1600s. Then the main entrances to the homes opened into a courtyard (Spanish style), and visitors entered through a gate on the street. This gate is from that era. This is a repost. I like the black and white version better.

    I remember this great image too and that is a compliment on your work that it leaves a lasting impression. This works so well for Nostalgia being that it is from an earlier era.
