Keeping it together.

This church is a beautiful structure, but has had it's problems.
All around the top, are cables to secure it. It looks like part of the building is still in use. I would love to look inside.


Thanks everyone for all the very kind words on my pictures. I do appreciate them.

[Karen Sylvia]

Love the perspective and the gray stone against the blue sky!

[Trina P Holub]

It's a beautiful building...like a castle. Reminds me of how some of the cathedrals in Europe have wire mesh keeping parts together. Really gorgeous photo!

[Tanya]

neat angle! they dont look very heavy duty but they dont detract from the building too much either.

[Catherine B]

I like the angle. It looks like it would be very nice inside, too.

[Rick Schies]

It's beautiful stone work, but it makes you a bit suspicious that the cables may be holding it together.

[Angie Vega ☮♥ シ]

love the color of the building against the sky...the angle is great

[Amy]

Can't say anything that hasn't already been said but I love the angle and especially the color of the sky in this one :D

[june milner]

Lovely grey against blur sky

[K J Buehl]

I love the structure of the building, especially against the beautiful blue sky!

[Beverly Moolman]

Great composition. I do hope tthe church will be O K

[Cheryl]

Beautiful stonework! Beautiful textured neutrals against a lovely blue sky---Great pic!

[Caroline]

Nice - a little scary that it's held together by cables! :)

[Geertje K.]

Looks dangerous! I like the angle, hope it gets restored to it's formal glory.

[Martie H]

This is a beautiful shot! It's interesting that they wrapped cables around the structure to hold it together. I'm not sure that will keep it from crumbling!

[Pamela Mandeville]

I like the perspective. And the gray and blue is so nice together.

[Annie Feeley]

Like the perspective.

[bruni]

Had to look twice before I saw the cables. yes it looks like an European style church.

[Juliette Packham]

love the textures and lines in this shot - great composition

[marg]

Fabulous old church. Love the capture and the caption. Obviously some desperate measures to preserve this lovely old building.

[bernadette mcelligott]

[Mike Fitzgerald]

[Diana Moss]

Wonderful old building , lets hope it do sent collapse

[Pyrrhula]

[Emer Hyland]

lovely shot of a tired old building

[Carol Olejnik]

Ah, I love old architecture and design.. this building has strength and character and you have managed to capture both.. Thanks for not tossing us old things aside without a second look.. beautiful picture!

[Courtney]

Absolutely beautiful!

[Denise Breimeir]

I like this angle you captured. The cross and trees look really nice against that blue sky. The cables look like you could just cut through them like you do to unwrap those plastic ties around boxes.

[Elyse Klemchuk]

What a beautiful sky! I hope the stone work can be restored. The opposite roof has a pretty ornament too.

[Philip Cole]

Great exture, perspective, and composition! Brilliant shot!

[Jonna]

Beautiful architecture!!! Love the blue sky behind the gray stones...

[wendy chapman]

Nicely composed photo. Great colors. The poor buidling looks liked it is all tied up.

[oselleso]

Would be great if you could record the interior of that building with your camera ... I hope you have the opportunity and share it ...

[Margaret Tryon]

@oselleso I would love to. I have never seen anyone in this building. It's near my doctors office. It's an Episcopal church and seems to still be in use, at least part of it. If I get in, I will post pictures.

[Amanda]

I love the angle of this shot! It really is a beautiful building and the sky behind it is lovely as well. Are you ever going to get inside?

[Margaret Tryon]

@mandyrob I would like to, but have not had the opportunity yet.

[Dragonfly Explorer ( Rhoiz )]

cool perspective in here. great color too. Love it! great architecture also. where is this church?

[Lynn M. Watson]

Gorgous architecture!

[Paula Fontanini]

Great angles, textures and color....wonderfully captured and composed.

[Mike glasson]

Love the contrast.

[Bugik]

Very interesting architecture and the angle gives the character.

[Vanessa Marie]

Really cool shot!
