This first shot is my post for Monochrome Monday hosted by @old-guy-photos
When I saw this guy sitting on the steps of the Church I had to get a shot, doesn't he look so small surrounded by that huge arch and found it also kind of ominous in a way with the Bird sitting almost like it is looking down on him.

I love how every piece of this beautiful church has amazing detail in it.
The detail was so co it really grabbed my attention
Love big beautiful churches and what a shot caught two birds at once :)
Yes the guy and bird were a bonus totally changed how I would edit the shot
Wonderful captures of magnificent architectural buildings @tatoodjay The guy on the steps certainly does put things into perspective.
Thanks kindly 😎👍😎
You're very welcome!
😎👍😎
Have a great day
The picture of the guy really grabbed my attention too. It really shows off this church in the proper proportions.
It is all in those fabulously perfect details. I have to wonder how the perfection has lasted through the years. Good workmanship is what I would guess.
Another wonderful piece of architecture!
Tip!Thanks for such a kind comment and thoughtful as always your so kind
Loved your crop and edit! There is a richness and depth and an absolute stillness. Such that even the man becomes part of the stone. Nice brother!

Men are creators too

Quite gigantic mansions

Always pal. We are all on this steemit journey and we need each other
Absolutely I think the sense of community and support is what makes it special here
Amazing how much we credit we don't give ourselves for constructing such masterpieces like that.
True indeed and In today’s culture everyone is in such a rush and probably looking ng at their phone that they do not even notice it
I know! So much gets taken for granted and passed by. I love that you know how to 'stop and smell the roses' my man.
This last couple of weekss and coming couples I wont have much time for Stropp Ing a lot going on but after that I hope to get back into that mode ;)
First off, the already beautiful architecture is made exceptional by your photography!
The man sitting on steps helps bring about a sense of proportion and the massive dimensions of the Church become emphasized. So it helps to have the guy there, and the bird looking down on him - it is actually a tiny speck and I had to squint in order to find it in the image.
By the way, both the links to the larger images do not seem to work. I tried opening them on a couple of browsers but to no avail. Just fyi, so that you could look into it.
Thanks for your feedback, yes the bird is tiny and hard to see thinking about it
Appreciate all your kind support
Strange on the largest size let me take a look - update found my mistake and fixed thanks grr pointing it out
Nicely done! That makes a great photo!
Thanks for your visit and support it is truly appreciated
