Well thanks Al Max for the feedback on the photograph. Considering all the amazing work here, I take it as compliment that you even selected mine to comment on.
I like the low angle and the details of the wood grain as well. If I can recall correctly, I simply held the camera down low close to the door a took the photo, counting on a good capture. My old joint in my knees do not allow me to get down at low angles such as theses anymore. Besides, the ground was a bit wet with some fresh snow on the ground.
I am posting another perspective of the door. Not quite as dramatic though.
