Built in the 12 century AD, when Sicily was under Norman rule, the Church of the Santissima Annunziata dei Catalani is an example of Sicilian Norman architecture with its mix of different cultural elements.

My wife’s an interior decorator, she would say this composition is “busy”.  Well, it’s definitely busy.  But that was my intent when I “saw” this shot.  My hope is, for the viewer to experience all the “scenes” or compositions contained within by navigating the lines, shapes and patterns.  The composition is looking down on Av. Vaudoyer, near the Promenade Robert-Laffont at the Port of Marseille, France.

Cheers,
