The composition of his being nearly a silhouette with slightly hunched posture, standing beneath the high dark ceiling, make this photo stands on its own, with no backstory needed (though it was very interesting). The subtle light ray is perfect.
Whether he felt humbled in the presence of a higher being, or whether he felt awe at the beauty that man can create will be interpreted per the viewer's personal beliefs. Powerful.
Yes, I thought the interpretation could have been left to the viewer too Linda, but I know in reality it’s the window doing the trick. Thanks for the nice comment on it, I snapped it in the moment and was pleased with the result - it’s warmer in the original but I posted a file I’d saved to my phone and assumed it had been converted (colour wise!!) along the way. I should have used the original and converted it to sRGB myself. I don’t think it matters much for this one.
