Blue and Yellow Saint John Doorways Colour Architectural Photography
Paired Doorways Framed by Brick and Weathered Stone
A conversation in a Saint John art gallery led me to these two entrances. I had spent quite some time walking through the city without finding subjects that inspired me, so I stepped into the gallery and began talking with the curator. He was also a photographer. After we discussed the city and photography, he suggested a nearby street lined with historic homes. I followed his advice and found these blue and yellow doors, a discovery that made the walk far more rewarding than I had expected.
I photographed the entrances together because their matching structure makes the difference in colour so clear. Red brick arches rise above each doorway, capped by heavy stone detailing with triangular peaks. The glass above the doors reflects greenery, while small flower planters stand beside the steps. Black railings repeat on either side, and the worn stone gives the bottom of the composition a substantial base. The blue door is cooler and more subdued; the yellow door brings a brighter note to the same architectural arrangement.
What holds my attention is the balance between repetition and individual character. The entrances share nearly every structural detail, yet each painted surface changes how its half of the photograph feels. I kept the frame close enough to make those differences easy to see, while retaining both stairways and the brickwork above them. This architectural wall art brings the colour and craftsmanship of a Saint John streetscape into view, along with the memory of a helpful conversation that brought me there.

About My Fine Art Photography
Every photograph in my collection comes from my own travels, explorations, and years behind the camera.
I create my work as photographic art rather than mass-produced decoration. From street portraits and abandoned places to landscapes, architecture, and the unusual subjects I discover along the way, each image begins with something that made me stop and look.
My photographs are available in multiple sizes so the same image can work in anything from an intimate wall space to a large statement installation.
