Soft light glows in the empty bell tower and illuminates the dome of the church at San Xavier del Bac mission in Arizona.

About Richard G Witham

My focus as a photographer and digital artist ranges from traditional photography to PhotoArt compilation and the less explored world of abstract design created with natural elements such as smoke, oil and water.

    Una fantastica composicion Richard, siempre con unos colores espectaculares.

  • Muchas gracias Teresa! Esta si me costo trabajo sacarla por los contrastes de luz. Al final tuve que tomar dos fotos; una expuesta para el cielo, y otra para las sombras del edificio, y juntarlas en Photoshop. Agradezco mucho tu atención y tus comentarios :-)

    The dome has an strange muslim quality.
    I adore domes…great breast of Divinity…and used in many cases for containing spiritual projects close to the earth, and distracting us from our wishies to get higher.
    I have visitied your profile…you have made such a good work with it..I love that clicking of the camera with your name on it…And you have organized your intros with affectuous display..using the caligraphy for that purpose..really homely..!!!
    And visited your facebook home page..too….wow!….you have worked hard on it.
    Congratulations!

  • Gracias Rosa por tus comentarios tanto sobre esta foto como los cambios a mis paginas de inicio. Quise hacer el Profile Page un poco mas cordial y personalizado. Me agrada que te haya gustado. También lo de Facebook, que no la trabajo tanto, pero me gusta tener presencia ahí por si acaso.
    Gracias por el abrazo con olor a mar. Te regreso uno con olor a flores silvestres del desierto – es que el desierto en si no tiene buen olor, pero con las flores si :-)
