Iglesia de la Merced in Black and White

Since one of the goals of AntiguaDailyPhoto is to bring you new fresh vistas from the same hackneyed places I have decided to do a series of black and white photographs of the most emblematic churches in and around Antigua Guatemala. Today’s is an example of a new perspective for the overly-exposed Iglesia de La Merced, quite possibly Antigua Guatemala’s most photographed church.

Even I have already shown you the façade, the dome, the atrium, the main doorway, the baroque details of Iglesia de La Merced. I have tried not to show you the most obvious places and the most often photographed sites unless I can bring a new fresh vista or a different angle. Remember, this is not a tourist-oriented site (well, at least I try not to make it one).

Have I succeeded, please, let me know your thoughts?
