“Therefore, do not fear”
Last night I was closing up the church after the funeral of a dearly loved member and noticed someone had left one light on in the sanctuary. It made for lovely images both outside and in. And it encouraged me to know again that through faith in Jesus and his resurrection, I need not fear.

in the produce aisle,
Paradise fleetingly found;
scent of cantaloupes

night at the shelter
safe space to be warm; outside
the chill of winter

This album is a bit of a proof of concept as I shot these with a 50mm lens. I would really like to shoot with these with a zoom lens sometime and from a more perpendicular perspective and a tripod. The styles of these windows vary. Some are quite extraordinary.
