Black Altar of Holy Cross at Strzelno.

-----
Olympus XA + Ilford XP2

My hands were trembling when I felt Jesus eyes laying on me.
First I prayed.
Then I made this photo (hand held).
Afterwards I went back to my car and brought a tripod and my Mamiya.
In some time I'll show some other shots taken later,
but this first, imperfect one is most special.

I skipped the first part of the story:
The altar is normally hidden behind a painting.
I had no idea it was there before the painting was moved by a guide and the actual treasure shown to me.
You can imagine the effect it made!

Another interesting thing, unfortunately not exactly visible here, is the black reliquary with over six hundred relics of saints and blessed people (most of them confirmed to be original remains).
Quite a collection!
