title
Quietude
I wanted to give this structure a fine art look in monochrome accentuating the intricate details of the dome and spires. I waited for a cloudy day to happen because I believe it would form a good contrast with the white marble surface.
The title Quietude reflects on the structure and the solitude that one gets upon viewing this structure especially when the pandemic has restricted entry to places of worship.
My primary interests lie in landscape and street photography and off late, portraiture and fine art photography.
