"Church
in Fog"
| I
have always found this photo to be one of my most dynamic and
most meaningful. I have always mused that it is an interesting
juxtaposition between the beautiful architecture of the church
in the foreground, against the skyscraper in the back. This is
especially of interest to me because it describes the story of
how society has changed over time. Churches were originally built
tall - usually the tallest buildings in the community - so they
could be closer to God. They were beautiful and ornate, sacred
places. And now, looming and disappearing into the fog and the
sky, we have huge hunks of steel and glass - relatively plain,
with no other purpose than to cram as many business people into
one place as possible. |
