Time for contemplation

Saint-Severin / Paris

HSS!

 

We were visiting the church in the evening partly during a church service. This gave a special atmosphere to our visit. The music we heart during the service reminded me of Gregorian music. So I searched for one to link to this image. When I was photographing in the church I was happy to find real candles that were lit.

 

I tried to create an image that through a shallow depth of field get a more contemplative character. I wanted the candles to be sharp and the little painting blurred. Took me quite some attempts.
