Toward the Heavens

The United States Air force Academy Chapel, located in Boulder Colorado. This is an all-faith chapel.

Designed by Walter A. Netsch of Skidmore, Owings and Merrill of Chicago (SOM)

This shot is only the top of the 150' tall structure. Cropped slightly above the doors, I was looking to emphasize the spire at the entry and the steel architectural details. I was pretty happy with the way this turned out.

I took this shot in 2007 and just got around to looking at the images for post-production and upload.

Very cool! So simple, but thanks to the way you worked the tones it is very captivating.

Faces, Places and Things Hi Martin,
Thanks for the kind words. The funny thing about this shot is that I took it 2 years ago and literally just got around to doing post on it Friday. I was really happy with the result and glad it made it here. Thanks again for the comments.
