Sad Door Saturday

Now this is wrong...JUST PLAIN WRONG!! How could a reasonably nice door become THIS??? It looks to me like the SPCD* should be called in right away on this poor thing!!

*SPCD - the unfortunately non-existent 'Society for the Protection of Cruelty to Doors'. For previous examples of doors needing the SPCD's help, please see SPCD in the side bar.

Sad Door Saturday

Spring is here, the weather is lovely, everyone is smiling...but this sad door. Not even the two faces on this door look very happy. Honestly though, just a little work and this door could once again be happy and smiling. I really do not understand the need of some people to deface doors and walls...or anything!! Are there not any door angels out there to protect these innocent doors from angry, heartless people? Please come forward if you are out there!!

At least the pretty door handle has remained intact!

Sad Door Saturday

A broken window AND crap all over the babies.

Is this not sad???

But it could be so nice!!!

Why-oh-why?

Sad, but Kind of Funny Door Saturday

I saw this and just had to photograph it though I'm not really sure it counts as a door like the others do. I don't quite know where it goes or what it is for, but it does have a handle, a lock and so forth so it counts as a door. I like the flower decorations on it and for once, the fact that it is really quite small...I think even I might have to stoop to walk through it! It is awfully sad though...definitely a case for the S.P.C.D. And that eye-sore of an extension cord (?) above it?? What is that??

Note: I am in Switzerland now (I have pre-posted this) for a week and will try to keep posting while here, but please forgive me if I miss a day. I do have a stock of photos to use so that isn't the problem...finding the time to post is. I will be back!!

Sad Door Saturday

Another Sad Door Saturday, but unlike last week's door and the week before that, this door isn't so sad looking (though if I caught the delinquents that 'saddened' this door THEY would be sad!!). This door has many happy elements including the repeating motif across the door's top and bottom; the uniquely-shaped windows; the diamond-shaped window panes above the door; and the really nice frame which not only has a repeating floral motif, but two ladies heads there on each side of the door just waiting to welcome everyone who passes by (too bad they don't have the power to fight off the people who saddened this door!). This slightly sad door deserves to be happy again AND some respect...and maybe a new and more interesting handle!!

Sad Door Saturday

Ah, yes...once again it is Sad Door Saturday. While there are so many lovely doors in Prague, there are also countless sad ones. What you are looking at here is just another poor, sad door that deserves an intervention from the (non-existent) Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Doors (SPCD). Seriously, can you imagine the humiliation it must feel..not only has it been so thoughtlessly defaced, it's grip on life has been taken away from it as well!

Sad Door Saturday

Ahhh...it's Saturday. I hope as you are reading this you are in the company of a nice cup of java or tea (as you prefer) and that you have your feet up.

Here at The Door Hunter, I've decided to dedicate Saturdays to 'sad' doors because sad doors need to be noticed and loved too. Today's sad door is truly sad. Actually, I think I can hear it whimpering every time I go by it. Poor, poor little door. It has such potential, but it is so abused and unloved...If there was a Society for the Protection of Cruelty to Doors, I'd be on the phone right away trying to get help for this little door. But since there isn't, I will just have to hope that one day someone will love it for it's beauty and take care of it...afterall, it was once loved and decorated...

...now it is badly mistreated...and badly handled. Poor, sad door.
