I quite love this shot, and after coming back to it several times, have rated it higher. The great repetition of lines and patterns gives this shot a lot of strength. I like the lighting, and the somewhat "soft focus" around the stained glass windows. The photo definitely represents something that is sacred to me, evokes the feeling of peace that I get in a church. The only thing that detracts from the shot, for me, is the overwhelming expanse of red carpet at the bottom of the shot. I would love to have seen some of that cropped out; it makes the photo feel somewhat unbalance to me.

Quite an interesting composition, it really captured my attention. I like the colors, and the great lines and angles. The 3 crosses are great. There are a couple of distractions, but not much you can do about that, is there?!

I remember this church, and your photo does a good job of showing how impressive it is. The colors are vibrant and lovely, and I like the composition. Honestly, I don't think there is any other angle that would do it justice.

This is the most adorable little church! It looks kind of pink though, which seems odd. I think that I would have preferred to see this shot at an angle to give it more dimension. The way it is shot straight on, it looks "flat". The blue in the sky is quite lovely

This is quite an amazing shot! I'm guessing that the incredible color is from the northern lights. If so, you certainly had an impressive view of them. Awesome shot, one of my favorites.

What a lovely church! The architecture is wonderful, and lighting gives it a beautiful warm glow. I really do like the composition, with all of the great repetitive patterns and lines. One of my favorite shots.

Absolutely breathtaking. If this is your morning spot, then I am quite jealous of the blessing you have of being located there! I love the colors, and the composition of the shot.

Though I suppose I would classify the human body as "sacred", I would not classify it as a "sacred place"! Your lighting is pretty good, but I'm not crazy about the composition - it looks a little odd to me, to have just "part" of a body in the shot.
