The Cathedral Church of St. George is located on Grenville Street in Kingstown, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, West Indies. The Cathedral is the mother church of the Diocese of the Windward Islands, which is part of the Province of the West Indies. The Cathedral Church of St. George is nearly two hundred years old. It has a typical 16th century architecture with stained glass windows, wall plaques, a hanging chandelier and quaint adornments.
The St. George's Cathedral was built on the site of an earlier Anglican Church which was destroyed by a hurricane in 1780. The new church dedicated on the 1st September 1820.
All Saints Anglican Church, constructed 1856 in the Fallsview area. Some of the grave stones were much older than that, dating to the late 1700's. According to some research, there was a previous church on the site built in 1836. Andrea and I were just walking by here on the way back to my apartment and thought the orange light on the building was quite nice...
I'm not sure if this is Greek or slightly Mission style but it's quite striking architecture to my simplistic mind. Holy Trinity Anglican Church is at 68 Hawthorne Street, Woolloongabba, Brisbane, a suburb that seems to have more than its fair share of ornate churches.

Church of St George in the Forest is part of St. Paul’s Anglican Cathedral in Nicosia.
This Church is located in the depths of the Troodos Mountain range, hiding in the shadow of a dense forest exactly opposite... a British military base (Royal Airforce - Radar Installation).
The place for construction had been chosen for a long time. The church had to be easily accessible to both residents of the mountain villages and British employees. In the end, the building site was bought for a symbolic amount from the Forest Department of the island.
The ground-breaking ceremony took place in October 1928, and construction work lasted until June 1931. Since that time, the church has been decorated with a wooden altar made of Cypriot cedar and an icon of St. George dating from the 18th century.
I don’t often take good interior shots of churches because tripods aren’t generally allowed (for a fee, sometimes) and I struggle to get a perfectly level and symmetrical frame. Here, inside the vast Anglican cathedral of Liverpool, the 10 mm lens with image stabilisation worked a treat, allowing me to capture the upper interior handheld and from a central position at a shutter speed as slow as 1/6 second. In Lightroom, I reduced the highlights in the windows and added a few vertical filters to subtly grade the colours. Thanks for looking.

St Stephen's House, a Permanent Private Hall of the University of Oxford and theological college training clergy for the Church of England. In the final week of Michaelmas Term, staff and students training for ordination keep an Advent retreat, including a 48 hour prayer presence before the exposed sacrament in Chapel.
The chapel was originally built for the monks of the Society of St John the Evangelist (the Cowley Fathers) who occupied the site until 1980. Names of their deceased brethren are etched on the walls.

Excerpt from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seoul_Anglican_Cathedral:
The Cathedral Church of St Mary the Virgin and St Nicholas, or the Seoul Anglican Cathedral, is an Anglican cathedral in Downtown Seoul, South Korea. It is the mother church of both the Anglican Church of Korea and the Diocese of Seoul. Its location is adjacent to Deoksugung, the British Embassy in Seoul, Seoul Metropolitan Council, and Seoul City Hall.
Construction began in 1922 to a design by English architect Arthur Stansfield Dixon.[1] The Cathedral is known for its Romanesque Revival architecture, together with its mosaic murals. In 1985, a Harrison & Harrison pipe organ was installed in the Cathedral's west end. Expansion of the Cathedral began in 1991 and was completed in 1996. In 1978, the Cathedral was designated by the Seoul Metropolitan Government as Tangible Cultural Property No. 35.
"Barkerville, once the largest city north of San Francisco and west of Chicago, was situated on the western edge of the Cariboo Mountains. It was named after Billy Barker from Cambridgeshire, England, who was among those who first struck gold at the location in 1861, and whose claim was the richest and the most famous. In 1958, the government of British Columbia decided that the town should be restored and operated as a tourist attraction. Today, Barkerville appears as it did in its heyday and is referred to as Barkerville Historic Town. The history of each building has been researched and documented. No actual residents remain; they were either bought out or moved to New Barkerville during the restoration of the site."
