I knew you'd do a bang-up job with this theme. I like all these, especially the first and third...and I especially like the last one because I have a weakness for boats and water!

Great job, VP!

Tussy said...

So many passageways and so different from each other — wonderful! I love the first one best of all.

all of these look like passageways to somewhere nice.
I like the one leading to the courtyard best.

You have different different passageways here. I especially love the 2nd and 4th. The first is nice, but I think the architect of Passage #3 might better have chosen another career. Maybe it's OK in person, but it reminds me so much of the ugly 1950s institutional building (like all of schools I went to before college) that we had in Southern California.

Sorry, I meant four different passageways :)

Some really beautiful passageways !! Great

Tash said...

Each one is really special. Well done!

Dina said...

You left the best for the last. Out in the open with sea and sky (IF you are authorized).

Excellent take on the theme. I like the 2nd one but then again I like them all. MB

I am troubled by your words, "Former brewery." A Black Day, indeed.

Gunn said...

Very different and very nice.
(Number one is my "number one")

A delightful journey through passageways, VP. Thank you.

excellent series of passageways and each so unique and each one I would like to walk down.

Lois said...

Lovely pictures! They make me want to take a walk down all of them.

Great set of pictures, the second one composition is awesome.That door at the end of way is provoking, I loved this idea!
The last passage is also brilliant.A way to a trip or some sailing feeling...peaceful feeling, I loved it! :)

:) I had the same idea in the beginning, of posting a series of passageways but in the end decided to just pick one. Nicely photographed, I can't decide which one I like best.

My favorite is the jetty, passageway to some possibly long trips by sea...

cieldequimper said...

That's four for the price of one!
I'll be waiting to see that photo of Il Passagio.

All great passageways! And all so varied.

Leif Hagen said...

Hey, you are truly an "over-achiever!" You showed us 4 great passageways for theme day! Maybe you just couldn't pick two or worse yet just one?? Bravo!

James said...

Some how I missed this post. I like these passageways and I love the "corridor to an inside court off “Via Roma”".

Wolynski said...

All these are good, but the second one is quite beautiful.

Kaori said...

Wonderful photos! I love places that have an inside court :)

Halcyon said...

Nice choice for the theme day. I would love to walk through the old Peroni factory!

PJ said...

I love the arbor in the first photo, would love to have something like that. Very nice array of passageways, VP. You have so many wonderful things to photograph.

merrytait said...

Beautiful passageways, especially the first and second!!! They are all nice. I always miss the theme-days--I forget. :-(
