Touch of light

Ceilings blackened from candles lit through the ages and heavenly light from one of the windows describe the humble and modest interior of an 11-12th century Church. You cannot find rich ornaments, golden or silver articles, just stones with prayers carved on and the echoing sound of the priest thanking the Father and blessing the people.

This is not only a beautiful photo (the light draws impeccably the main elements of the composition), Dr. Harout, it is also a moving picture. (I would try some top and bottom crops, just to isolate a little more and thus emphasize the relation between the three protagonists of this ancient story: the text, the beam of light and the window.) Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Alfonso. You are right, maybe I should have done it in the first place.

Stunning shot, the icing on the cake would have been if the shaft was on the prayer itself, but a terrific composition.
