Ordinary Window
"The invariable mark of wisdom is to see the miraculous in the common." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
Sometimes something common or ordinary can catch your eye. Something most people don't give a second thought as they pass on by.
I photographed this common church window through a rain covered wind shield across while parked across the road. I was waiting for mom and dad to finish some shopping. Nice thing about the rainy day was the even and diffused light that all but eliminated shadows.
I want to thank EVERYONE for their encouraging comments on my last post.

I love the windows, stained glass and otherwise. This photo is amazing as always. I am spending two weeks apartment sitting in Brooklyn; walking around on Friday, I was overwhelmed by the variations in architectural details, doors and windows, columns and railings, even fire escapes. And I haven't even hit the botanical gardens or Prospect Park yet, You and your camera would do wonders with this place.
