This is St. Paul Cathedral with its alluring beauty. The third largest Cathedral in the United States of America. When me and my husband entered the Cathedral the first word I uttered was WOW! I was hypnotized not because I and my husband are Catholic believer but there is really unseen beauty that the Cathedral welcome us. So instead of staying short time I decided to stay a little bit longer just to contemplate and of course to take its beauty through the lenses of my cameras. I grabbed my 2 cameras to record its Alluring Beauty.

Also like this shot. If the ISO is a little more to allow more lights in, the shot would have been another amazing shot. The details of the wall would have been better. :-) Woof!

Hey Allan, thanks for the appreciation/comment. You know in photography there is Low key and High key photos so I did it on purpose. I like the low key lighting of this church to evoke the emptiness. When I first saw the church I was amazed with its architecture and I was thinking if only it is in the country where I grew up it would be a more happy church because lots of people going and praying to the church. However, I felt the emptiness when I observed it for 3 hours of taking the photos. Only few people were there.
