Carmel Mission outside San Francisco is a typical, beautifully preserved Spanish Mission still with a functioning school attached. The brilliant earthy shades of orange are vibrant and enticing, the colour of autumn and spice, cheerful, jovial and playful, even exotic. However the buildings themselves, arranged around a safe central courtyard, have a definite ambience about them.Simple structures reflecting the simple lives of those who once lived there. This vibrant tryptich, the colour of dessert sunsets, contains a portal of course, this time as a gorgeous blue gate to keep unwanted folk out and the people inside safe.
