Photograph a church from any religion and show its beauty, grandeur or simplicity.
We've had a "Holy Places" challenge but no "Churches" challenge.

"Pew."
Just kidding, of course! I think this would be a really interesting challenge. In my area, there are a number of remaining churches that were among the first permanent structures built here. |

| that would be a cool challenge, but have the inside of the church depicted too, cos some churches are in strip malls, village halls etc! |

Interior or exterior, they would all count. |

| This thread reminded me that last year I did my SoFoBoMo project on Churches of Temescal (those in my neighborhood). See this thread for more information -- I encourage you to sign up.... |

We got lots of churches on the Cape :-) This would be a fun challenge. We don't have any of the grand, monumental type, but plenty of nice, old wooden churches.

Thanks for the reminder Wendy. Tintern Abbey is a short 30 mins away from me and would, indeed, be wonderful for this challenge. Plenty of other cool churches around here as well. :) |

| Just come back from Yorkshire and all the shots I took of York Minster would have fitted this challenge idea to a 'tee', but of course, right place, wrong time:) |

I would have, but we were on a coach tour holiday and didn't know the itinery until we got to the hotel, and they didn't have wi-fi either! I took the netbook to download photos and had to sit in a hotel room without access to DPC:( But, we had a great tour around the Dales, Scarborough, Whitby, York, Flamborough Head etc. We stayed in Bridlington, a seaside town of two halves, North side a holidaymakers haven with amusement arcades etc and the south side, wide open beaches and dunes with a super harbour. Loved it up there, so clean and tidy and the people were great. I will return to t'North soon I think:) |

Near me over in KY is the smallest church in the world. I think we have one that has the largest stained glass window in the world to. hhahah. I would like it to be just the outside though to make it more about the outside architecture.

Here at the Dream Center we have this really old catholic chapel built in the 40's that is never used anymore. Should make for an interesting subject.
