Lent is here-abstinence, a photo from Newfoundland, Atlantic

Photographer's Note

This photograph was taken in December in Corpus Christi Church.
Lent begins on Ash Wednesday (today), which is the day on which they faithful have their foreheads signed with ashes in the form of a Cross. It is also a day of fast and abstinence.
Historically, Lent is the forty day period before Easter, excluding Sundays; it began on Ash Wednesday and ended on Holy Saturday (the day before Easter Sunday). In recent years, this has been modified so that it now ends with evening Mass on Holy Thursday.
All days in Lent are appropriate for fasting or abstaining, but I’m not giving up photography.

This photograph was cropped, and sharpened in lab color, U. S. M.96, 2.4,3.

Bon cadrage serré d'un vitrail d'église.
J'apprécie la netteté et la saturation des couleurs

Dear Jim, I really like this crisp clear technically well done picture. It is almost like a painting. Don't we all have something to pray for ? Good actual note too, thanks for sharing.

Very beautiful colors and so sharp. You captured a good portion of what looks like a much larger window. The colors and the quality of the window give a moving feeling. You did a very nice job capturing this.

I like colors, sharpness and composition. It's very simple but that's all we need most of the time.
