Hi Francis: Such a beautiful image ... congrats!!! Kerry

2/21/2004 9:02:03 PM

This does not surprise me at all. A big congrats to you Francis!!!!

2/24/2004 8:20:26 PM

I really love this image too. One of my favorites.

And since you did not yet answer Carol's quetsion above, Francis, I think this would be a great image for our monthly Where in the World quiz.

So don't give it away, Francis... let's see if anyone can guess. Email me privately with the location and in a few weeks, we will see if anyone has guessed it correctly.

Again, great image, Francis.

Have fun guessing where this chapel is, everyone!

3/4/2004 11:03:35 PM

This is in fact the Yosemite Community Church or "the little red church" in Yosemite.
Nice picture of it.

3/5/2004 12:37:40 AM

church/chapel

3/5/2004 12:41:24 AM

It is the Chapel at Yosemite, and is extremely well photographed!

3/5/2004 3:35:21 AM

southern Germany................maybe!

3/5/2004 7:05:35 AM

Not sure, but I've heard about this little church in Drumheller, Alberta. I've never seen a picture of it, but thought this might be one of it.

3/6/2004 5:44:35 AM

Vermont? Ireland? ( Subliminally )Glad you won dude! Do I hear a church bell?

3/7/2004 2:37:15 AM

It's a beautiful picture of the chapel in Yosemite. Just got back from there!

3/10/2004 5:51:04 AM

It's a beautiful picture of the chapel in Yosemite. Just got back from there!

3/10/2004 5:51:14 AM

I apologise I have just seen your pic for the first time - I am bowled over! How I missed it I do not know because it is one of the best images I've seen for a long time, so technically accomplished, wow I could go on......... rita

3/16/2004 1:25:06 PM

Yes, all of you would said Yosemite were 100% absolutely correct.

What a great place to take a camera - if Half Dome, waterfalls, wildlife, and El Capitan don't do it for you, there are photogenic little structures like this.

Again, this is a charming image, Francis. Keep up the great work!

4/1/2004 12:01:50 AM

What a great image, Francis! You have a lot of technique and a great eye. IMHO this is better than some of the GP winners (but then I don't do the judging!). Congrats on your wins here at BP. Hope you have a nice printer to get them out there on display.

9/26/2004 6:56:46 PM

Great shot! Wonderful image!

9/26/2005 6:48:17 PM

Was just browsing through Yosemite photos and I just in case you did not know LOL love this image. My all time favorite of yours. I really miss seeing your work. Take care.
