Love the hints of light, Joe, and how you’ve composed the image to give weight to the visually interesting sky. Hard to believe this is abandoned!

Joe, this church looks to be in good shape. What a shame that it isn’t still in use! The design is wonderful and you’ve photographed it beautifully. I love that slash of sun light and shadow on the wall. Simply wonderful!

Wonderful, Joe! It’s too bad that such a strong architectural gem goes unused. I’ve seen many churches getting converted into condominiums and in some cases massive private homes, which ends up be a great re-use of the structure.

Thank you Mike 🙂 There are a couple of churches here for sale for the exact reason you mentioned. I would love to be able to buy one and convert it but the prices are just way to high.

I hope so too. It looks like it was just recently abandoned because the building is graffitti free. Thank you and have a great day Pauline 🙂
