A collection of photographs sent to the BBC by readers around the world under the theme 'Open Doors'.

Rachael Blakey: 'An open door at an abandoned house in New Brunswick, Canada.'


Tricia Ryan: 'This is Magic the beagle checking the weather before deciding whether to consent to going for a walk on a so-so day in chilly Dorset in November. I love this photo of her heading from the dark to the light.'


Harald Loeffler: 'Family members going up for their first skydiving adventure lea ed that doors just get in the way of a successful exit, and that at least one was superfluous.'


Robert Ho er: 'A pair of open doors within a pair of closed doors, Malaga, Spain.'

Olga Arune: 'Let me in!'


Kristine Zlamete: 'Dramatic entrance to the forest in Latvia.'


Jennie Meakin: 'Shake it off. Down the old windy streets of Bari, you can happen on someone mid-house clean. Suddenly a brush popped out the door, and back in almost as quickly.'


Jane Thakker: 'An unexpected door in the grounds of a hotel in the Suusamyr Valley in Kyrgyzstan.'


Kevin Munt took this picture by the coast.


Tim Rishton: 'Opening the door to let the lambs out after the winter's snow; competition to be first out is intense.'
