Description
You say nothing ever goes your way
So you look for help and start to pray
How about creating your own path today
If you follow your light it will show you the way
****
A local church near Marseilles, France.
Taken with Canon 17-40L
I stayed there for a long time trying to get the light and the moment right, and it worked out as planned. It's a good thing I have the faith...

It would be cool if you edited that and make it simmetric on both sides

The top part of the picture seems so flat and then extends into the frame, there's so much depth! Also, the colossal structure quite an impressive sight. The cold colors and the intense contrast is also very nice.
I can see this up in my new apartment, on my bedroom wall.

Brilliant to say the least...the way the lighting from the upper left window descends and illuminates the silhouetted figure in the background. What perfect timing! I am in agreement with It is like seeing into a dream..Bittersweet and thought-provoking.
Cheers

Wide angle lens I suppose. I don't thin my 28mm would have done the job so I think it had been something shorter.

The window in the upper left corner distracts a bit, it's a part I'd mask with a second exposure (using layers) if the result looked good enough.
Still, great mood.

I can see the roof and the man in front of the camera at the same time. Would you possibly tell me what kind of camera lens you've used for that? Is it easy to capture this kind of photos for an amature like me?
