Ceiling-Focused Photography

The David Stephenson 'Vaults' Series Captures Cathedrals

The David Stephenson 'Vaults' series presents a unique look at cathedral ceilings. The cathedrals featured can be found across Europe, and now tourists can get a closer glimpse at the detail of each structure.

By simply looking up, one can view these ceilings at a variety of cathedrals in Europe; however, many will have missed certain details. These captures are outstanding, as they teach individuals to perceive more about their environments.

Stephenson demonstrates his acute attention to detail in this series, as each angle brings out the best of the ceilings. It's hard to notice the intricate strokes of color and various shapes that make each roof unique, but these photos provide a glimpse of what can't be seen with the naked eye.
