I thought the same concerning the door and the knocking hand under a strict point of view http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3427307 but for me the true meaning I was looking for is that in the Basque Country someone or something is knocking in our doors but nobody knows what will be behind the door... but darkness. In fact I tried unsuccessfully to show in black the inside of the house bracketing a series of pictures but then the door itself was too dark and muddy. I thought so that this one was the less bad. A person in the door -I wouldn't mind awaiting - I'm not short of time nowadays precisely-- would make a better composition but the desired meaning would be lost. Regards Felix
