The power of the church has always been strong


Tilted to the left or the right? I guess I blew it but it really looked straight to me when I submitted.. LOL ... oh well.

Hey MAK! Nice job! You have such an amazing versatile portfolio!

And I agree. . .the power of "the church" is unmistakable and awesome :)

very clear image and nice lighting, wish it wasn't slightly slanted

Now this church looks familiar....

Great symbolism, in this shot, I love the lighting and the post work is great. The only thing I would change is that it seems tilted to the left a bit. Great work.

I'm mixed on this picture. I love the lighting the on pews (not sure if thats spelled right) and the alter... but i don't really get the sense of beauty or inspiration from the window level up in the pic. I'd be curious to see what a crop around the alter area would look like from the original pic (maybe including the first couple pews)

Wow... if my church was as beautiful as this one, maybe i would go more often. Great photo. Lighting is right on the money...focus is pin point! (8)

I like the concept of this photo and the concrete adds to the power encased within the church walls, horizon is off a tad but still very nicely composed.

Beautifully captured. I would rotate slightly ccw to level.

At first I would've said that I didn't think this fit, but I think it does. I think what makes it work is all the lines going to the middle. It's a great image and it's really excellent composition.

nice, but a bit of center and crooked.

Not a bad church shot, though you are going to get slammed for not straightening it up!

Would have been nice if you were standing dead centre too as the symmetry is not quite there. If the church was empty, how come you managed to miss centre?

Beautiful Church! Very nice lighting. Your tripod wasn't quite level...slopes to the right. Good luck in the challenge.

Needs a slight straighten at bottom, but a beautiful photo. very serene. I like the graininess

Looks slightly tilted to me and that is a bit distracting. I do like the photo though, might be a bit of a stretch for this challenge.

Very nice.. Would have loved to see it totally symmetrical though.
