Geometric Lunette • Monomad

I captured this lunette above a church door last week. The late afternoon light gives the brickwork a very Modern feel for a 19th Century structure.

I photographed the lunette with my iPhone 6S Plus.

It is a very curious name !. I did not know it (Lunette). It's also curious to look at, I do not know if it's because I'm seeing it on my phone but it has an optical effect (it moves, I must be dizzy).

Lunette means "little moon" in French but in English describes the architectural element of a half moon that is used for windows or decoration in architecture. This photograph is actually an arched lunette because the top is pointed. The black & white checkered pattern of the bricks can cause an optical illusion of movement because the pattern remains on the retina while the eye is continually making slight adjustments so you are not seeing the picture moving but experiencing your own eye movement. This is always going on but not noticeable in most situations.

So my vision is not so bad.

That’s a beautiful photo.

The photo in green is great.

I've never heard of a lunette before @otage. I like the shapes created by the angle and prefer the black and white by a long way. 😁

It was more popular in the Renaissance!

Good post @otage
