Do You See the Light?

St Peters Basilica, December 26th, 1991

For a long time after this trip, I felt that this was the best picture I'd taken during that first stint in Europe. While I still feel it's quite a good photo, these past few years have made me more critical of it.

Of course the title is in reference to this scene.

Thank you both. I actually have a large 11x17 print I had made from back when I worked at Helix. I really should frame it since I have it.
