The ascent by angelar

The ascent

This staircase leads to the choir rooms of our parish church and is a regular ascent for our family. I went up there today to photograph the stained glass but I was captured by this magical moment as the sun shone through the glass and painted the stairs with glorious colour. It was a privilege to witness.
Lovely how the light hits the stair case, nice observation.

Lovely. Love the mixture of the ancient and modern. Looks like the stairway to heaven.

You captured a beautiful moment! Funny how a place you go to so often can look magical sometimes just because of the lighting! You were there at the perfect time! =)

Churches and wonderful sunlight seem to go hand in hand! Lovely shot.

@steampowered Our church is all wood and glass so I really must get the camera in there more often.

@marybethosullivan The light was at that angle for only a few minutes. Meant to be?!

Hah, my 8 year old son would say this looks like the old Myst computer game. That would be a BIG compliment from him.
