Thanks, Collin. I had another couple of shots incorporating this motif.
One in particular, which I almost submitted, was a twilight view of the
local horizon incorporating several "modern" suburban-looking vertical
elements (light poles from a local park, a tall brick smokestack from a
county heating plant in the distance, parts of the structures of some
government services buildings, etc.) juxtaposed with this more "ancient"
looking religious element. That horizon shot had what I thought was a
pleasing palette of twilight colors, and it probably would have better
conveyed the cultural "texture" I was trying to capture. However, the print
looked too cluttered for my tastes. I sumitted this simpler and less
cluttered composition instead. I may go back and try some different angles,
points of view, etc., when I'm out for another evening walk sometime.
Again, many thanks.
