The image communicates a sense of peace and tranquility. I have always been a fan of shooting churches myself, simply because the buildings reflect amazing architecture and design. Excellent theme entry. #1640333Mitch Spence October 20, 2015
Lovely symmetry and excellent range of tones, Nikki. #11388331Amanda D. Austwick October 20, 2015
Love the peaceful feeling, sharp focus, and tonal range. #11388355Michele Peterson October 20, 2015
Really nice, with it being in b&w, all of the little details really stand out. Nicely captured, Nikki! #11388487Terry A. Stoa October 21, 2015
Yes, it works well in B&W. I suspect it's super-busy in color... this way, the lines lead to the altar - and the light/dome above it emphasize that central subject, too. They can't afford to build these churches like they used to. #11388781Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
