Old St Pauls - Colour version

This is the original colour version of Old St Pauls in Wellington, NZ. My effort does not do justice to the varying colours of native timber, or the stunning stained glass.
Wellington is one of the world's 'Windy cities' so the wooden construction is very suitable, and is also less likely to suffer earthquake damage.

For anyone interested there are some fine photos HERE taken during it's restoration which show the finer details beautifully.

I think you handled this shot well, I think it would be a hard one to take. Lyn, I also enjoyed the link as well. This would be something really special to see I think. tigs=^..^=

Thanks for this wonderful version, Lyn. Think however that one shouldn't compare the colored version with the B&W version, as each have a different character.
Thanks too for the very interesting link showing some images of very special stained glass windows too!

You really captured the open space of the church in your shot. Good work.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967
