You already know from several of my previous posts that Mission San Xavier del Bac south of Tucson, Arizona is beautiful with doors that are the same. Now you can see that they also have attractive gates. The design on this first one is purely Southwest.

This one is more church-related but after all, it is a mission. 🙂

The last gate isn’t remarkable, but the surrounding entryway definitely appeals and I liked the way the whole photo set up. Don’t go running out that gate at night (or any time) without looking where you’re going. Cacti are very unforgiving!

  1. A variety of metal gates are great doors!

  2. Those are really nice gates. That’s a prickly deterrent right in front of the last one!

    Years ago, when we lived in SoCal, we visited the many missions and how I wish I were photographing doors then! These you have here take me back to that time.

    The quilter in me likes the clamshell design on #2 but they’re all great!
