“The sound of my footsteps disappearing into the profound silence”

Photography memoirs

Walking through the archaic doorway of Freiburger Münster, I paused, crossing myself before walking down the aisle. The sound of my footsteps disappearing into the profound silence. In reverent awe I suddenly paused and looked up towards the cathedral ceiling, awestruck at the beauty and magnificence of this church. The words of the Roman emperor Justinian, as he entered “Hagia Sophia”, “The Wisdom of God” dedicated to Christ Jesus in Constantinople echoed within me… “Solomon, I have surpassed thee”
