Iron steeple
so far, so close
Cross the green
endure all stone
Sacred arches
winding stairs
Spine of will
leads to light

A lovely poem and photo for me to encounter this gray, cold Sunday morning.
Thank you.

I love the spy glass effect. Is that something that is done with the camera or photoshop?
The poetic words perfectly depict the picture. 🙂

This is how I always imagined the shot, but I didn’t have the know-how nine years ago. Instead, I added the effect via iPhoto. Considering this is a 35mm film shot, I’m pretty happy with the result. 🙂
As I move further into this series, I’m amazed at how images inspire me to write poetry. The lines come so fast I can barely keep up. 🙂

Thanks so much! It’s a shot I forgot I had, until I started looking through older pictures for this series.
