Church of San Giorgio Maggiore, Venezia IT
This church was built by Andrea Palladio in 1566, and remains one of the more impressive examples of both his work and the Northern Italian religious buildings of the time, at least that I saw. This was a chance capture of a trio talking to one of the Benedictine monks who operate the church, all four huddled in a narrow patch of sunlight streaming in from the western windows trying to forget how cold some of those old churches can be during the winter. I spent a couple hours here at the church sketching the facade and such, but ironically I like this picture that I snapped right before leaving the best. I might post up some of the sketches though, just to give a more complete idea of the place. |

[...] omnia, nunc se continet atque duas tantum res anxius optat, panem et circenses.
this reminds me of the scene in the church at the beginning of 28 weeks later. not just for the superficial fact that they are both in a church with some filtered light, but also for that very fact that at first, the stillness of that scene rendered it almost indistinguishable as film and not painting.

You are welcome. : )
I'm not too optimistic, because it was taken with a pos canon pns, and then cropped from there, so that is probably most of the quality issues, but if there is something that is fixable I would be willing to give it a shot at least.

'typical' scene I think. But still a nice cap.
