Through the lens of a Sony Alpha A100 at 60mm, the details of the stonework come alive, bringing forth the artistry and craftsmanship etched into this historic masterpiece. The shutter speed of 1/100 sec and an aperture of ƒ/5.6 highlight the delicate shadows within the engraving, drawing attention to every curve and line with stunning clarity. Though the iconic red doors lie just beyond the frame, the timeless beauty of the architecture speaks for itself—a silent testament to centuries of history and devotion. In these stone-carved details, one can sense the reverence of the past, as if the building itself holds the stories of countless souls who have passed through its doors.
