What an awesome catch and to keep the exposure on the face without over expose is wonderful.

What a wonderful abstraction. Not only does it capture the spirit of the temple, it also captures the spirit of Tim May. You see not only with your eyes, but with your heart. I think that's what the heart shaped form in the middle of this image is telling us.

This is amazing! I love the mysterious, elusive "spirits" that live here...a few revealing a face. Great eye to catch this!

It takes more than vision to see light, Tim. It takes sensitivity and thought and passion. You bring all of them to bear here. While others saw a temple here, you found a manifestation of the spirit that lies within, and you see it as abstract form. You don't see things here. You see a form of belief. (Minor White must be smiling somewhere.)
