the belfry of the church of the holy name

"photography has the capacity to render detail with a precision no other visual medium can match." - freeman patterson in his book "photography and the art of seeing"

i have photographed and posted this belfry on here at least twice - see http://365project.org/summerfield/365-again/2012-06-17 and
http://365project.org/summerfield/365-still/2013-06-17
and yet i've only now noticed that there is some sort of banister-like detailing just above the cornice. in the two previous photographs of this belfry, my main concern was to capture the huge bell, which was quite difficult to do as you have to be way farther to get that particular view point or you have to be at an elevated vantage point (which i'm still aiming to find!). but today upon examining this shot, that's when i notice the other details of this beautiful church.

thank you for your kind visits and comments; know that they are valued and appreciated.
I like the way you've composed this too. An impressive building and pretty shot.

Love the lighting, great golden tones! It shows also that we see only what we want to see!

Isn't this the most fabulous thing about photography; the ability to shoot the same object (be it an item or landscape) and see something different each time; this is by far my favourite shot of the other two you linked in

I like the way you're using light and shadows here
