St Patricks Basilica

Hi Folks,

Sometimes when you walk around your house there are things you have that you see but you don't take notice. Here is the same for me, in the sense that this place has always been here but never bothered to look at the architecture much.
It is a lovely old building built around 1850.

Built 1850

A few years ago it went through a restoration and it is really quite stunning. Walking around one late afternoon just before sunset, I noticed the late afternoon sun on the top half of the Basilica.
It truly was lovely and I thought I must capture this.

Relaxed Angle

The light and the patterns really are appealing and have a look of their own. The arches and the circles and everything is just marvellous. It was hard trying to get the angles that I needed because I wold have been with a stiff neck if in front as it was just to tall.

The Arches And The Light

I was partially successful and have a nice arch in the photo. I said earlier in the post that you don't always notice and I am so glad that I have taken up photography because it really makes you observe what is around you.

The final photo is an overview of the whole Basilica. It was this scene that caught my eye in the first place. I plan of taking photos inside one day for a seperate blog post but for now,
These are My Photographic Observations for now...
