This is a shot from one of the windows around the San Luis Rey Mission. The mission was built around 1798, and I am pretty sure it has been neither painted nor washed since that time.
I was experimenting with night shots, holding the shutter open while also using the flash. In this photo, the flash took the initial image then was held open for an additional 4-5 seconds. The cat moved, leaving this interesting image.
I took this photo at Mission San Luis Rey, near my house. It wasn't really as dramatic and dark as this, I adjusted the exposure to make the clouds darker for the DRAMA.
