[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Washington National Cathedral, officially called the Cathedral Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul, is the sixth largest cathedral in the world and second largest in the United States. The church is located at Massachusetts and Wisconsin Avenues in the northwest quadrant of Washington. It is the third on the List of America's Favorite Architecture by the American Institute of Architects.

Its final design shows a mix of influences from the various Gothic architectural styles of the Middle Ages, identifiable in its pointed arches, flying buttresses, a variety of ceiling vaulting, stained-glass windows and carved decorations in stone, and by its three similar towers, two on the west front and one surmounting the crossing. (wikipedia)

Recently, the cathedral has hit financial difficulties and has been forced to lay off 33 people, as well as closing the greenhouse.

WaoW... j'ai visité beaucoup de vieilles cathédrales en France, mais j'en ai rarement une décoration pareil à l'interieur !

hello Martinez
very beautiful Architectural picture n very colorful.I like the design of the roof. its amazing. one thing I did not get the walls and the pillers seems a little tilt but the chair and the floor is in horizontal line. I think u should have move to the walking area between the sitting arrangement.
but this picture is making a different visual effect.

Awesome display of colors, point of view, exposure, depth of field, lights, composition, and architectural structures. What can I say Danny? It is excellent photography of yours.

Hi Danielo
The arches, the symmetry and the colors are beautiful.
The dof leading to the altar appealing, and the reflection of light on the seats very realistic.
Good shot
