Country Church
While wondering around rural Ohio last weekend we came upon this beautiful old church. Unfortunately the church was closed and I had to settle for exterior shots. I like the outhouse in the back.

  Unless there's a more convenient facility inside, I suspect that outhouse in the back may be a big reason why the church is closed, David! ;-D Terrific find well captured!

  They have a similar church with outhouse in the Texas Hill Country but they leave it open during the day. Love your perspective David

  Wow interesting leading lines and nice framing with the trees. The bold red against the textured sky makes a wonderful focal point. Fabulous lighting in this presentation.

  Does that mean you used the outhouse in the back? The tombstones are quite unusual! ... Not sure I'd feel comfortable using a washroom in the middle of a cemetary! Fantastic capture of this wonderful old church though, King Davey Pooh! Love the great colours and that beautiful sky! Nicely done! :)

  Great shot, excellant leading lines, comp, color and detail. It amazes me how some of the tombstones are so big while the others are so small.
