Description
Another school year begins...
It's dark and quiet inside the church where I sit and watch the school day start. From beyond the door frame you can see a child making her way to class.
Thanks for the view.

How special this is Jodie ... such a beautiful photograph. I hope you didn't scare the living little daylights out of her when you snapped this picture! lol
Oh no, Shari. I had my stealth camera that day... lol.
VERY NICE.........
wonderful image!
Perfectly composed with a fantastic light.This touches my heart! When I look at the little girl I think: Poor little one!!!(says a little of my own school memories) Are you a teacher Jodie? or a parent?
Wonderful shot! I love the way you've seen and used the available light. Outstanding!
Great image !! you are really handy with that camera!! (understatment) [^___^] Cheers, Roger
It's really beautiful. It speaks eloquently for itself...a long gaze through a darkened church, which all opens on a girl on her way to school. You really capture these moments beautifully. The symmetry is eloquent, and the light has that wonderful 'burn', that way things dissolve in the sun. You really do have a way with light in deep spaces...And your floor—just like some other shots of yours—is luminous. It's beautiful. A jodie shot to the core...(HUGS!) (that was a Mina reference. I pay her for that!)
nice image...
the going over from dark to light is cool!! nice capture!!!!
Beautiful work with light. A great photo!
Superb pic!
Excellent use of the lighter areas from back in the dark, it emphasizes the contrast. Very significant that the road to the light has its own steps, albeit small.
excellent pic!
Excellent Love the different ways the light is caught in this image Hugs Susan~
Genesis II on display in this shot. I echo busi2ness/Piet on his comments, Jodie. Having been absent from my computer for a while, I'm really in the rears in checking out my e-bots!!!
One image makes it indeed :) Amazing story for the first day in school!! Congrats my friend!! 5+
Jodie was like paparazzi in the dark to catch this very first school day Excellent point of view and choice of report As Piet I'm stunned by the dark & light capture lay out Well done Jodie Amitiés q:) Magali
I love the sense of balance in this, from the geometric composition, to the dark vs. light... Great eye, Jodie, and great timing. I love how the little girl is just perfectly 'centered'. Very symbolic and a wonderful way for her to start her year! Well done, sweetie. -M :^)
beautiful light, Jodie ! wonderful composition, bravo !
Nice shot!
i love that you captured this special before school moment ... when mike was a principal and we lived on the church school campus ( back in 91 ) i would go there daily and teach ( art) there with my baby who would get passed around the classroom LOL and oh this brings me back must be a church school and this must be the chapel ... fabulous light and capture Jodie!!! love it!!
Nice POV and centering!
Wonderful capture!
Superb photographic work...the light and darkness works in complete harmony here and I love the way you've captured both a sense of calm and anticipation here.
fantastic photograph! wonder why I always miss that much. what a wonderful gallery you have!
