Rushed Prayers

Description

In hectical times like these people don't even have enough time for their prayers any more. They rush into the church light a candle and leave. Sadly some churches in Cologne even have to put up posters outside reading "Express mass, just 30 minutes" to get people go to church.
I was in the cathedral in Cologne today, that's where I took this photo. The place was so "goddamn" busy with tourists taking photos (well, that includes me then I guess), getting a guided tour and kids unpatiently awaiting the "World Youth Day" - not quite a sanctuary for reflexion really.

I always wanted to take a photo like this there because I adore those glass doors :love:
