Instant fav!fantastic,

Fav. I love the door and the wall and yet the two together are so strangely mismatched that it is wonderfully weird.

Beautifully framed by that intricate stonework. What a great find!

I like how sharp the colors are, very nice. And all the stones so neatly placed, very cool.

A door of character! This must be a beautiful church with a door like that and the wonderful stone walls.

@summerfield Thank you Vikki! Partially processed to bring out what I saw. It's hard to do on my p/s, but my original shot was slightly over exposed. So I adjusted the color and exposure, then used the hdr effect in iPiccy to bring out the texture. And thanks for the fav too!
@curleegirly Thank you Holly!
@mzzhope Thank you Hope! And thank you so much for the fav!!
@pandorasecho Thank you Dixie! The color did catch my eye- sort of unexpected on a church. Thank you so much for the fav!
@daisyjuds Thanks Judith!
@twr Thank you Timothy! I felt that if I had put it smack in the center it really would have been a rather boring picture-even with the bright red, so off-center was the way to go.
@salza Thanks Sally!
@gerry Thank you Gerry!
@sangwann Thank you Dione!
@tuya Thank you Claire!
@cimes1 Thank you Carole!
@digitalrn Thank you Rick! There is a great deal of artistry in stone masonry. I didn't realize how much until I watched my son do some work on his house once. He put set those stones on the foundation as if he was painting a picture.
@roejan Thank you Roe Jan! Yes, it is a beautiful church. I think if I can go back someday when it is open, I'd like to see if they'll let me photograph the stained glass windows. They looked beautiful from the outside. I can just imagine what they look like inside!
@henrir Thank you Henri!

Nice shot, Ann... What a great find. I like the red door. It certainly stands out over the rest of the building. Well done :)

I love a red door and the inside of our front door is red.

I am so in awe of the very artful way you melded your processing techniques to finish this very creatively edited image. I think you were so right to apply a little HDR; doesn't it define the stone so wonderfully? I want to know what's behind that red door! Your photo makes me want to walk right in. I'll imagine that the stained-glass shots would be absolutely gorgeous as well. Fav. :)

@gratefulness Thank you Sandi! And thank you so much for the fav! It's a very pretty little church and I imagine the interior to a very pretty dark colored wood- maybe someday I'll see if I can explore it.

I like this one! Great color and capture of the stone!

@digibugchic Thank you Cindy! It was an eye catcher!
