Description

***
Taken 8-28-12, at 6:30 PM. On that hot and humid evening, the thunderstorm clouds above this Cathedral were a constant, shifting mass of colors, with a rainbow to the left wanting to join the show. The reflections on the Cathedral's glass walls showed the sunset beginning over my shoulder. I turned around a few minutes later to find the sky lit up with an entirely different set of colors. I'll post one of the sunset photos tomorrow.

This is STUNNING, Mary.

I don't think any film-maker could have created a more divine and alluring scene.

From the perspective to the light and colors - this is all stunning (did I already say that?) - well it is, Mary.

The whole scene is so attractive and magical!!

Thanks, Carolyn, Tammy, Tiia, Joy, JJo Ann, Gord, John, Rony, April, Barbara, Nadia, and Kiki. I appreciate your supportive and friendly comments.
Glad you like it!
Kiki, your English is just fine. Your vocabulary amazes me ~ no way could I do the same in French or Spanish. Thanks for all your kind words.
Have a wonderful weekend, everyone! #10960912

Wow...I am in awe over this image. It's warm and consuming and as Kiki so well said "attractive and magical".

You are shooting and creating with your soul here. Not just your head, eye and heart. You dove right in! Isn't it wonderful when we click the camera as our hearts say, "WOW"?!

Wonderful image!!
