Another gargoyle shot from Notre Dame in Paris. Possibly my best photo from all this vacation. Shot at max telephoto without a tripod, thanks to the great low-light capabilities of my new Sony a65 camera! The only retouching I did was to crop the photo, slightly adjust the contrast on the moon’s face, and remove some color fringing. And add the discreet copyright notice on the top ledge.

About Fr Matthew Green
Currently parochial vicar at Holy Family Parish, on Cape Ann (serving the churches of St. Ann, St. Joachim, and St. Anthony). I moved to the area in early August '11, and am very happy to be in such a welcoming community and beautiful location!
One of my hobbies is photography. You can see my photos
on Flickr and buy prints of some of them
on Fine Art America.
I am a daily contributor to
GoodMorningGloucester (GMG for short), a blog by and about the community of Gloucester specifically and Cape Ann in general. The content is diverse, ranging from the beautiful and sublime to the earthy and occasionally offensive. I hope my contributions are of the former kind, not the latter. So, while I cannot endorse all the content that is posted there, I am grateful to Joey (the founder and admin of the blog) for giving me space to make my contribution.
I also have my own blog,
Perpetual Learner, which mostly includes my homilies and some re-posts from GMG, but also sometimes has other content, such as my personal reflections, videos I like, etc.

That is cool!
Reblogged this on Perpetual Learner.
Wow! Looks stunning even on my iPhone!
Thanks for the compliments!
Excellent shot!
That shot gives me chills and makes me smile, all at the same time! Happy Halloween, all!
Nice shot, FG, and a great gargoyle series, they always make me smile. When my son was small he said he didn’t like cathedrals because the “argyles” were too scary. Actually I’ve seen some pretty scary argyles myself.
Wow! You always impress me with your photography! Great picture. Unbelieveable!
Wow! You should enter that in a contest!
Fantastic Shot–you Should enter it in a contest!
