“Fearless, serene, contented, and victorious among the direst scenes and the most dreadful visitations which can light upon humanity, this sublime priest appears to our sight one of the greatest conquerors and instructors of the age. Not only has he given solace and resignation to hundreds of his dark brothers and sisters in pain and dissolution, but to his generation he has bequeathed a splendid example of the truth that ‘perfect love casteth out fear.’
-The Spirit of Father Damien JAN DE VOLDER The Spirit of Father Damien The Leper Priest—A Saint for Our Times Translated by John Steffen With a Foreword by John L. Allen Jr.

Walked along Little Venice canal again yesterday and this caught my eye, situated under the Westway flyover, near Notting Hill, London. Tried a different approach with this one and took a handheld shot with the iPhone by using/choosing/applying a filter before pressing the shutter release, so no editing was either necessary nor applied.

Aachen Cathedral, Germany. This space was certainly an eye opener. You need some time here to fully appreciate it. A brief description below.
One of the oldest cathedral buildings in Europe, it was constructed as the royal chapel of the Palace of Aachen of Emperor Charlemagne, who was buried there in 814. From 936 to 1531, the original Palatine Chapel saw the coronation of thirty-one German kings and twelve queens. Later, much expanded, it was a minster and collegiate church, becoming a cathedral briefly from 1803 to 1825, and again in 1930 when the Diocese of Aachen was revived.[1] In 1978, Aachen Cathedral was one of the first 12 sites to be listed on the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites, because of its exceptional artistry, architecture, and central importance in the history of the Holy Roman Empire.[2]
