One of the fine church buildings that line the Main Street of St. Johnsbury, Vt. I tried to find out the history on this building, as it is definitely one of the more ornate churches in the area, but I could unearth nothing. :)PJ

Lovely shot PJ. That sky is just great. I was expecting something wild with Jungle Jim or Tarzan in hot pursuit. Quite the opposite. I love the coloring of this church and also the composition you have. Love the angle. The steeple looks like it's reaching all the way to the heavens. This is why we missed you. Glad you're back.

Great composition of a grand subject. The beautiful sky really sets off the whole scene - postcard worthy for sure.

This is a really nice church and I see one flying buttress anyway. I really like the bell tower and stained glass rosette window. The details and colors are so good.

I click on the link and ta-da - up pops this stunner. Wow. You did great with this one PJ. I'm guessing it's a HDR right? But very very well done. It's totally 3d, looks like a cardboard model of the church - I can't get over the depth in it. Enough said, you knocked me off my seat with this.

That's one fine looking church building. You got a nice winter setting for it, and the sky is fantastic. This is actually quite a stunning picture. The quality and composition just sort of hits you when you first see it. The only thing I don't like about it, is that I can't hear the choir singing. Maybe I don't have the volume turned up high enough. Nice work, PJ.
