The lines and colors and shadows and light were wonderful. I hope you enjoy my attempts to capture them.

Photos from Santa Catalina Monastery, Arequipa, Peru
I'm not usually too excited about historical buildings and cultural sites. But I really enjoyed Monasterio de Santa Catalina in Arequipa. It's a beautiful complex of buildings, plazas, and passageways - virtually a village in itself. I can't help but wonder what it was like for the nuns who lived here back then. Or for the nuns who live here now, for that matter.
The lines and colors and shadows and light were wonderful. I hope you enjoy my attempts to capture them.

The contrast between the vibrant colours and the deep shadow is very striking.
