This church. I couldn't resist slipping inside. It was completely empty and really quite beautiful ... another small glimpse of Moret-Sur-Loing.
A Glimpse of a Genovese Church
This church ... and some light.
And I wondered how to capture something of it.
Tried this, and really, there wasn’t anything photographically tricky. I suspect it’s just something to do with the architect’s building in God light.
Holy Light, Genova
We are lonesome animals.
We spend all of our life trying to be less lonesome.
One of our ancient methods is to tell a story begging the listener to say and to feel
‘Yes, that is the way it is, or at least that is the way I feel it.’
You’re not as alone as you thought.
— John Steinbeck
Quote sourced from the blog of the truly gifted photographer, Steve McCurry.
Yesterday, as we worked through our day, Hanna, Francesca and I found time to pop into my favourite church here in Genova ... located in Piazza Maddalena.
I was giving Hanna a little information about photography and explained ... there are all the rules but then you can break them and, sometimes, that’s where the magic happens.
This is one of those shots, for me anyway. I was handholding my camera in an incredibly dark church, kind of falling in love with the light and voila, the light let me have a little of its beautiful self.
