    Default Spokane Twin Crosses

    These are two spires on the same massive church at Gonzaga University in Spokane, and they are lit with flourescent lights inside, but at dawn they look a little eerie. This was shot on September 11 of this year. I was feeling nostalgic and a little worried. I was on the balcony of the Best Western on the Rock, just south of the river in downtown Spokane, Washington. I used my usual Canon EOS Rebel Xsi, with my trusty 24-105 @ 105, (which I am never without). f/4.5, ISO 800. There is not much anyone can do with this image. Its either there for you or not, I think but if anyone has any ideas, please do comment. I gave this to my daughter, who is a deeply committed Christian. i hope y'all like it.

    Hi Katherine - like the light on the crosses - nicely spotted.
    Whilst I like the colours of the sky - I think it would make a stronger image to crop some from the top, about 1/3 - IMHO.
    tfs :)

    Love the image, would only take little from the left to move the spires. Powerful image ... well seen and captured !!!

    Hi Katherine,
    I love this capture. The contrasting colors is what makes it for me. I would crop just a tad from the left side and 1/4 from the top...well done, looking forward to your next one...:cool:

    Nice picture like Lance mentioned too much negative space. I would use tighter crop and force focus on subjects. Love the light on the crosses but it is lost in the space of the frame IMO - nice composition - just tweak a bit. You want to create visual impact not just a picture!
