As I did this assignment it took me a while to decide where, and how, I would take pictures showing the definition of the word 'liminal'. Finally, I realized when I was at my congregation/church that I wanted to take the pictures there. The building, which is liminal in its own way since it represents where the spiritual meets with the physical, is surrounded by woods.
I took a variety of photos but most of them ended up being nature-related and are liminal in a number of ways: ground meeting sky, water droplets in the process of becoming part of the pond, a reflection forming a whole new image, and so on. Also, most of these pictures turned out to be the type of pictures I most like taking - close ups of nature, which my dad pointed out to me are liminal in their own way since they are between abstract and realistic.
"The building, which is liminal in its own way since it represents where the spiritual meets with the physical" - this is an outstanding conclusion - brava!
