The image today is appropriate for the season and the new year. It was discovered a few years ago that on the morning of the Winter Solstice, the rising sun shines though a window of the San Juan Bautista Mission and directly illuminates the tabernacle of the altar. I shot this image at the Mission at the Winter Solstice of 2007. I set my tripod up near the front altar and shot down the center aisle directly into the sun, f11 for 1.3 seconds.
(This image is a repeat of my first post from January 1, 2010. Today begins the second year of my photo blog. Last year I posted 120 images.)
May 2011 be full of light for you. Gary Williams
