Archways are a frequent subject of mine. I have nearly 800 pictures of doorways and archways. I must find them inviting. They invite a passage from one space to another, one time to another. This archway is part of the historic San Carlos Borromeo del río Carmelo mission (Carmel Mission) opened in 1797. Taken February 16, 2006.

Arch and Bougainvillea
Sometimes an archway is just a beautiful archway. This entrance to a home in Monterey, California was nicely framed by a magnificent bougainvillea. Unfortunately, the plant was damaged by frost and is no longer there.

Archways And Transition
Archways and doors invite us to step through, to experience what is on the other side. They are places of transition. Passing through an archway or a door can be a ceremony of initiation and renewal. This door is at the Carmel Mission.
