A sanctuary, in its original meaning, was a sacred place. From the Latin for container of holy things. Over time the meaning has extended to include a haven or safe place. From the fourth the seventeenth century political sanctuary in a church or synagogue had legal meaning in that one could seek safety from the authorities. Metaphorically, I think our Utata Thursday Walks are like weekly sanctuaries from the quotidian aspects of our own photographic life. In it week seek a momentary solace, seeking something, shall we say spiritual, in our work. So, let's head out to our sanctuary. Tag your photos with utata:project=tw634 and post one small image in this thread.
