A church that I went to as a child. Notice the attendance board...only 9 or 10 people on a Sunday morning. A sentimental picture for myself.

Nice lighting; Maybe a bit more contrast needed to highlight texture. Nice old time religion classic feel; I like the fact you didn't put people in the shot.

...straight foward and to the point..I like the "unfanciness" of it all..."holy" needn't be all gothic arches, vaulted ceilings and golden Christs...nice work.

The composition & lighting need some help, and I mean that in the nicest possible way.

Interesting shot. The inclusion of the attendance board helps this shot tell a story and give the viewer the sense of place.

A tad dark and dull, comes from photographing inside I guess. Image is a bit boring, composition is too centered, not even sure if a different angle would make this interesting.

obviously its not a grand cathedral but still its kinda boring even for what it is. maybe during mass it would have had more life.
