Hello, Alexandre- thank you for your participation in the 2009 March NPC.

I really like your photograph...the composition and mood of this image are beguiling.

Please note that the subject is not in strict accordance with the guidelinesrequirements for acceptability.

Please read the following requirements from the first post of the contest thread:

1 – The door or doorway must be on a structure in which humans live, work, play or pray, and be designed to allow a human to pass. Things like unprotected portals or arches, gates on fences and doors on vehicles of any kind are not acceptable although a large solid gate on a fortress, for example, would be acceptable.

1 - A porta ou a entrada devem estar em uma estrutura em que os seres humanos vivem, trabalham, jogam ou pray, e sejam projetadas permitir que um ser humano passe. As coisas gostam de portais desprotegidos ou os arcos, as portas em cercas e as portas em veículos do tipo não são aceitáveis, embora uma grande porta contínua em uma fortaleza, por exemplo, seja aceitável.

However, you may keep the photo in the contest - Entretanto, você pode manter a foto na competição - and we will allow the voters to decide the best scores. Still, I do respectfully ask you to consider whether another photograph from your collection would be good for you. Thank you for your understanding and consideration.

In all other respects, this entry has all necessary attributes and is ready for the contest :-)

In all cases, a most successful and fortunate March NPC to you!

A gate in the cemetery reminds me the philosopher Tales of Mileto: "Who is inside cannot come out and who is outside doesn't want to go in."
