All the photos I have posted since New Year’s Eve appear at a glance to be almost black and white. With today being Ascension Day – commemorating the moment when Jesus was lifted into heaven – I thought it was time for some bold, celebratory colour.

In this Recoleta Cemetery window, a sapphire-robed Mary prays beside Jesus’s Crown of thorns, her halo golden and optimistic. Beside her, there is light, hope, a flicker of spirit in the lacy arch projected inside the reflected doorway.
