Shot From Below, 52Frames

Here's the photo I chose.

"Aiming High"
This is the bottom of a special Sabbath and Holiday Prayer Readers Platform of an Cochin Indian synagogue reconstructed in the Israel Museum. It juts out of the Women's Gallery. https://scontent-frt3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xap1/v/t1.0-9/1618614_10208642893212546_8440354879599021488_n.jpg?oh=ba309a8b03d0df7bd69b45410828e84b&oe=572C2B73
The title I gave this photo, "Aiming High," is a pun; it has double meaning. Not only do I have to aim my camera high when shooting from below, but I photographed a place of prayer. And don't we "aim high" when we pray?

And here are some of the "rejects." Did I choose wrong or right?

I like the globe best, but it could be that the one you chose was a better photo....

Thanks for commenting. I had fun taking that shot, but was sure the 52Frames crowd wouldn't go for it. But in the end the one I chose got no real reactions. OK, the week before was a great success, and I hope the one I choose from this week is better.
