Our hotel in Key West was right on the beach. If when you come down from your room in the elevator you turn right, you will miss these rather pretty doors and end up either at the pool or on the family beach.
Should you happen to turn left when you emerge from the elevator, you will find yourself out in the sunshine and on a small topless bathing beach. Hope you like my crimson colour saturation for this photo edit.
This post is tagged to Nancy’s ‘ Photo a Week – One Photo Two Treatments’ challenge, and also to Norm’s ‘Thursday Doors’ challenge.

Magical …!!!
😀 Thanks, Issy. xx
a wonderful stained glass door!
Thanks, Frizz. Glad you like this one. 🙂
I love both photos Sylvia; the crimson effect really changes the whole atmosphere of the place doesn’t it? In readiness for a little ‘colour’ at the beach to the left no doubt 😉 Beautiful doors 🙂 xx
Thanks, Sherri. Yes, I really liked the style of those doors. 🙂 xx
Two different feelings as I approach both doors: first, calm and into a peaceful existence. The saturated effect – high energy and anything goes. Cool Sylvia!
Thanks so much, Mary. 🙂
Spoilt for choice 🙂 🙂
That’s exactly how it should be. 😉
love the saturated effect Sylvia! looks very rich. 🙂
Thanks, Lola. Glad you enjoyed. 🙂
Gorgeous images 🙂
Thanks so much, Ady. 🙂
Oh it’s s beautiful door in both versions 😀 so did you go to the topless beach?
Thanks, Gilly. What do YOU think? I only spotted the sign when we were sitting at the bar, and could only see a couple of loungers there. I don’t think it was very popular as most people were there with their children. 🙂
Love them both. Had to reread the topless beach part. Goodness I didn’t think they’d have such a beach in Key West. was that very narrow minded of me?
Haha It didn’t seem very popular, and probably not much bigger than your back yard. 🙂
I hace a weakness for doors and windows….
Imagine for these two versions of a Liberty one in Key West!
Thanks so much. Glad you liked these. 🙂
Both leave great impact. The second one is perfect for Friday Fiction stories.
Thanks so much, Indira. Yes, you may be right about that. 🙂
I am a very big fan of saturation! Lovely doors and great effect.
Thanks, Sue. Yes, me too. 🙂
Do you mean getting wet, Sue? 🙂
😆
Yes exactly! 🙂
I liked your description of the doors and how to find them. You know there are many things to miss while traveling if someone doesn’t point you in the right direction. 🙂
I prefer the original double doors but the second one looks like it would fit into a fantasy fulm. 🙂
Thanks, Robin. Yes the second one is quite fantastic. 😀
Sounds like you had a fun filled vacation in Key West. 😉
Thanks, Lisa. Yes, we did. 🙂
Lovely doors…..not sure I’d be brave enough to walk through the second set though…..
Thanks, Torrie. It’s never been my scene either. 🙂
The red one looks more interesting to step through 😂
Indeed. 🙂
No matter the treatment, that’s a beautiful entrance.
Yes it is. 🙂
Interesting idea to take two looks at the same image. Well done. Thanks for joining us this week 🙂
Thanks Norm. My pleasure. 🙂
Interesting treatment… the red doors and what lies beyond looks inviting and scary at the same time!
Hehehe. Thanks, Roslyn. 🙂
Oh yes, yes, yes, I do like your treatment to the photo a lot.
Thanks so much, YC. You’re my biggest fan. 😀
So did hubby and son turn left or right? They could claim both doors looked alike. 😎
To be honest, I don’t think either of them noticed the topless beach. It was very inconspicuous, and I only saw it because of a small sign on the wall with a bikini top crossed out. Of course, I didn’t mention it to them. 😆
They are so pretty and they have a lot of personality!
Thanks so much, Meg. I loved them. 🙂
beautiful doors- both ways! love where they lead to 🙂
Hehehe. Yes indeed, depending on one’s preference. 🙂
Wonderful doors in art nouveau
Thanks, Marylou. I would like these in my house. 🙂
A blushing door! Both shots are great.
Thanks, Geralyn. 🙂
LOVED this sexy doors!! Awesome! ❤
Thanks so much, Amy. 🙂
Since I love doorways, I like them both! Beautiful, Sylvia!
Thanks so much, Jill. 🙂
Wonderful art nouveau door! I like both versions!
Thanks so much. 😃
I like the second one!
Thanks, Aletta. It’s very different. 🙂
And that’s it? No shots of the beach? 😉 Sheesh!
Teehee You’ll have to use your imagination, like anyone else who comes to my post because I tagged it “topless bathing beach.” 😛
I am an atheist. I have no imagination. I need PROOF!
Hahaha. What a perfect reply!
Love them and they are very much like our front doors that we had made!
Thanks, Cindy. Do yours also lead to your topless bathing area? 🙂
Second one definitely tickles the imagination 😀
Hahaha. Yes, I thought it was hotter and quite appropriate. 🙂
It’s perfect 🙂
Great shot and both are wonderful versions. Thanks for joining the challenge!
Thanks, Nancy. Glad you like them. 🙂
