Description
The Mission San Francisco de la Espada is one of the oldest in the chain of missions in San Antonio. When I saw this, I wanted to capture the weathered facade of this still active mission. I knew it would have to be done in black and white to show the wonderful textures of the arch, the door and the stone. I knew I had to capture the cross on the left side to help signify the simple expectations of the original town settlers. I can just picture early settlers walking into this mission back in 1731.
