Arrow points UP

This is the front of an old church in Farmington Maine. One of my favorite things is geometric shapes in nature and in buildings. I took this a step further by using the lines in the front of the church structure to create an arrow shape pointing up and keeping the red as low to the bottom as possible as a symbolic "fire down below". Hope you can see it.  Having the image converge a bit also could be a symbolic message. Image taken a few years ago, I could tell by the camera used.

A lovely building, Norma, photographed in good, strong light.  It might have been even nicer with the shadow not falling across the red door, but I guess that one went with the shadows neatly emphasizing the upper areas.  I like your perspective very much.
