I was asked to take some architectural photographs today of a 1930’s church which is no longer in use and will soon be undergoing some considerable alterations and building works.
The experience was so calming, I’d gone in there just expecting to get as many photos as possible for the purpose of ‘before’ shots but I was overwhelmed by the sense of the history and culture the place. It was amazing to think of how many major life events would have taken place there, christenings, weddings, funeral services, events that have changed lives, brought joy, happiness and sorrow.
Surprisingly (to me!) I feel inspired to go back before the builders move in with a notebook and maybe spend some time in there writing or just taking notes. It made me also realise how we can find inspiration in the things that we walk/drive by in our local area, day after day.
