While the beautiful House of Worship is visible from a distance, the grounds are equally impressive, but really only visible when you are walking toward and around the building.  The immaculate gardens are gorgeous and incredible, a simply astounding ongoing task for the staff of the House of Worship.

The Baháʼí House of Worship is one of the most beautiful buildings in the Chicagoland area. Since the exterior is almost entirely white, it’s a great candidate for a monochrome series of images.

 

My favorite images tend to be the images that I consider well balanced; to me, no element feels too weighty. This image genuinely confuses me though; I spent probably too much time cropping, re-cropping, and then un-cropping the frame to get it to feel “right”. Don’t get me wrong, I really enjoy the image; but I was very indecisive about it; and just now, I re-wrote, deleted, and then edited this text a dozen times.

I absolutely love the powerful yellow mixed with the soft blue, but try as hard I could, there was no way to align the axis or center of the dome with the yellow backlit wave.  I still love the contrast and bold colors in the image.
