The National Cathedral

Over two weeks ago, I took a friend from out of town to take some pictures at the Cathedral. It's a beautiful space and it's a great place to practice taking natural light shots because all you have is natural light to work with.




I went back today by myself. Mainly to light one of these:


But you can't help taking more pictures while you are there, it's such a beautiful place. Right now it's under construction because some of the spires fell down during the earthquake. If you look closely in this picture, you can see one missing:


I also love patterns and the cathedral is full of amazing patterns:



 

And while I don't tell many people this because there's nothing worse then being known as a cat lady, I like cats and I thought this was a pretty interesting column topper:


There's something for everyone at the National Cathedral. I'm always surprised when I hear a local tell me that they have never been there. If you haven't, go now.
