Small church close to where we live. I gave it a little color tone. I loved the shape to the Gothic windows.

Carol, although the situation isn't quite similar, your capture does remind me of THIS SONG.
With your perfect way of editing you've given your capture a special touch too.

If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins! Please CLICK HERE to see my journal! Feel free to save my images or to add them to your favorites.

A very lovely church, capture and post-shutter rendering, Carol. It appears, so far, that there is no type of architecture that suffers from your attention. Kudos.

Just a couple suggestions, however (hope you don't mind):

One�if your lens is a telephoto, when using one to capture subject that have both straight horizontal and vertical lines, one can either make adjustments in the processing software (like Photoshop) to keep them from curving away at off angles, or, if your camera allows you to activate a grid pattern over your screen, you can place your camera on a tripod, using the grid to match the horizontal lines of the grid to those in the image (retaining wall tops, windows, etc). Then you can try adjusting the mm range of the lens until the curvature of the vertical lines of the subject is at its least (sorry, I'm a bit OCD).

Two: Whenever I shoot anything, before I hit the shutter button I try to remember to scan the entire frame of the capture, looking for anything that might break the plane with an incomplete shape or one whose very nature doesn't fit the main subject. In this case that would be the two sidewalk signs in the lower left. My suggestion would be to either crop them out at the shutter release, or clone them out in the final processing.

Otherwise, this is simply another example of an excellent eye for photography but someone whose dedication to the craft can be an inspiration to anyone.

A unique and original work of art. Gives one the sensation of pure beauty and a place where you would love to be. Gosh, you are really, really good at this.
