Hot candles in the chapelThis week's 2 Things Challenge was Hot / Cold. My interpretation includes the hot candles outside one of the 62 chapels in the Basilica of the Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. The basilica has become a regular stop when friends are in town because of its beautiful mosaics. When my friends Mike and Mary Ellen were here last weekend, I took them to see this stunning church.
Cold and frosty morning as seen through my car windowFor cold, I chose a picture I snapped one morning through the window of my car. We had a cold snap that left a layer of frost on everything. I love how the crystals and the blue sky turned out on this one. Just looking at it makes me shiver.

Nice job! I love how you've captured the cold frost.
Marley: Thanks. I think I stuck the lens on the window and snapped away. All I really remember is, it was darn cold that morning!
These are truly beautiful. If I had your eyes...
GIL: One day, I'm going to email you a photo and ask you to write about it in your unique, technicolor manner. Are you up for the challenge?
I love that church shot - the color and the composition. Very nice.
Those are both awesome! I love the candles in the foreground. I also love the depth of field on the crystals. Very nice!
