church of the redeemer (anglican)

behold my very sloppy cloning job, but i like the "silver screen" effect, a new feature effect in ribbet.com

this little church is right in the corner of a busy intersection and is dwarfed by the four seasons hotel, and other tall buildings and the similar colour tones made it difficult to distinguish the old church from the new buildings. so, cloned them out with gusto!

"The Church of the Redeemer is an Anglican church in Toronto, Canada. The small church is prominently located at the intersection of Bloor Street and Avenue Road, near the University of Toronto. It was founded in 1871 when the area was still on the fringe of the city. The Gothic Revival style building opened on June 15, 1879. The church is noted by passersby for its prominent sign, often featuring a quotation or thought for meditation. The church is known for its progressive stance on social issues, especially gay rights. In 1998 the congregation published An Honourable Estate: Same Sex Unions and the Church advocating the blessing of same-sex unions." - wikipedia.org

It's interesting- almost looks like a tilt-shift effect to me. Nice shot.
