Villages up in the Italian Dolomite mountains are usually centered around the church. People focus on the more important things in life. My entry for the B/W challenge. Thanks for looking and leaving a comment.

What a beautiful area this must be. I would love to visit that church, and see the mountains. Outstanding black and white challenge entry, Doug.

This lends itself to b/w quite nicely, Gibbs. I say all the inhabitants should pick a day and wear only b/w. I will put you in charge. :)
A true beauty of a composition.

Excellent image Doug!!! Do you realize how lucky you are living in Italy - just step out of your house and all the beauty of the old country is waiting to be photographed. This is a splendid shot for the B&W challenge:-):-):-)

This area looks so beautiful Doug and I know the churches are probably all Catholic since it's Italy - excellent varied monotones in this.

and a fine entry it is Doug..you got all the things in there (or rules they say to follow) for making a great shot come together. maybe a little more over the to right...no! maybe to the left to center the church...now dont crop out to much sky..oh bother! what were those rules again?

good luck to ya doug,

The Church towers above the houses and the mountains above the Church. Above all the sky - a wonderful scene well taken Doug.

On the list for the BWC next week - thank you Doug !

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Such a tranquil scene--I believe this one will get my vote. In color it would have lost something. Great work!
