Oh M, this is breathtaking- I love how it seems to go on and on in it's pattern.

Mike,

Not to try to get you to reveal any phtographers' guild secrets--but how'd you get this angle??? (My hypothesis--a choir loft?)

i like how those envelopes are on the chair on the right. it ties it to people somehow...and to action. empty for a moment only.

just gorgeous

[lowflyingsquab.livejournal.com]

I left those envelopes there for that very reason--I wanted it to seem "lived in".

I'm glad you liked it!

Re: How?

[lowflyingsquab.livejournal.com]

yes--it was up in the choir loft, which is usually locked, but I have a friend....

[lowflyingsquab.livejournal.com]

Isn't it cool?

[lowflyingsquab.livejournal.com]

It does. I was up there to shoot something else, and looked down and got "sucked in".

[lowflyingsquab.livejournal.com]

I took another shot at an angle, which shows the tile work extedning out through the church--it was way cool, but there was a technical issue that kept it from ending up here instead of this one.

is this where you baptized this weekend?

[pinkroo.livejournal.com]

I want one in my yard. If I had a yard...

[lowflyingsquab.livejournal.com]

No--this is in my yard.

[lowflyingsquab.livejournal.com]

haha--just kidding--it's not in my yard--it is in the big cathedral downtown. I was there to do a photoshoot for someone and wandered upstairs and looked down and saw this.

[pinkroo.livejournal.com]

Ha!

[pinkroo.livejournal.com]

so you have a yard--that's a start.

[lowflyingsquab.livejournal.com]

yes, but my yard doesn't have a choir loft. pity.

This is the cathedral I had told you about... my grandfather was called out of retirement to gold leaf the orbes and crosses at the top. He took his camera up with him and took some pretty interesting photos. This is beautiful. He would have appreciated it. ~A

I remember you told me about that.

now I know who this is!
