CHURCH OF THE DEPOSITION OF THE ROBE IN THE KREMLIN

Moscow, Russia 2009

I was told I could only take one camera into the Kremlin. I took my wide angle lens thinking that I’d be shooting architecture. I wasn’t happy with the results. But I never delete, or almost never. And the other day I decided to use my old trick of going to transform, perspective and then take it from there.

Here is my result after using Snap Art 4 to get a Van Gogh look.

The church is called the Church of the Deposition of the Robe in honor of the robe of the Blessed Virgin. It is said that the robe was taken from Palestine to Constantinople in the 5th century where it protected the city of Constantinople from being conquered. We’ll be needing that robe ourselves if Iran gets the bomb.
