Honorable Mention
Celestial Vision
DESCRIPTION
This is the interior view of a small greenhouse, I discovered in Brooklyn, New York. The incoming sunlight made the tainted glasswork shine like a lantern. I was lying on my back looking up to the pointy ceiling. Watching through a very wide angle lens I experienced the greenhouse like being in a translucent cathedral. I particularly loved all the details: the glorious light, the colored squares and rectangles, being mixed with plant elements and their shadows. Architectural design by Tom Fruin. AUTHOR
