I was shooting some photos at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels –will have a series on that later– when this scene caught my eye. I am not a practicing catholic but I respect people with strong faith. That’s what I sensed there.

Thursday Doors – 09.22.2016
These are some of the doors of St. Patrick’s Cathedral, in New York.
The door below is St. Patrick’s “Door of Mercy.” The Pope has urged catholics to take the opportunity to obtain a plenary indulgence during the Year of Mercy by passing through a designated Holy Door. 
At the Top
In a city like New York, you must look up if you want to fully appreciate the architecture. And if you are photographing those beautiful buildings, their tops are really worth zooming in on. Just a few here.
Never Forget
In honor of the 2,996 innocent victims of the incomprehensible acts of violence perpetrated against them on September 11, 2001. 
People and Art
Photos taken at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York in August, 2016.
Thursday Doors – July 21, 2016
For this week’s Thursday Doors, I am sharing a few captures from the historic colonial mining town of Ouro Preto, in Southeastern Brazil. Ouro Preto is a UNESCO World Heritage Site because of its outstanding Baroque architecture. You can see some of that in the shots.
Sculptures and Shadows
Deconstructing Art
Sometimes, when photographing artwork, especially large pieces, I feel compelled to “deconstruct” them in order to better convey the richness of the work.The fountain “Power of the Sea,” by Austrian sculptor Rudolf Weyr, at Michaelerplatz next to the Hofburg Palace in Vienna, is one of them.
Thursday Doors
Since I have a thing for doors, I’ve decided to join Norm’s Thursday Doors challenge. Here is my first entry, the door to the Da Vinci Museum in Venice, Italy.
