Glory Window-8938
I met up with my photo friends,Tom Crews, Lorna Morris Hamblin, and Wally Johnson for the 7th Annual Scott Kelby Worldwide Photowalk in downtown Dallas, Texas. Groups met in cities all over the world. Lorna rode the train from Ft. Worth and Tom and Wally carpooled from Sherman, Texas, near the Texas/ Oklahoma border.
This is Thanks Giving Square in the heart of downtown Dallas. For me it is the most beautiful structure in Dallas. The most prominent and recognizable feature of Thanks-Giving Square is the Chapel of Thanksgiving, a small, spiral tower that features an enclave for prayerful thanks. The entrance to the chapel is at the end of a 125-foot (38 m) bridge that runs over a cascading waterfall. Inside the chapel, the spiral is topped with stained glass "Glory Window", one of largest horizontally mounted stained-glass pieces in the world. The window was designed by Gabriel Loire of Chartres, France to feature brighter colors as the spiral reached its apex, becoming brighter as it reaches the center. The window appears in a shot in director Terrence Malick's 2011 film The Tree of Life. ~ Wikipedia
Those of you who have known me for a long time may remember a similar shot I made of this 2-3 years ago. At that time I was only shooting in jpeg. What a difference shooting in RAW and processing in Lightroom make! We all had a marvelous time walking the streets of Dallas.
