with the coronavirus causing things like church-going to be more virtual than real, some people may choose to pray in a different manner. (this was before the governor's edict this week about face masks in public.)
HSS- just a bit of cloning of distracting background.
btb, i wish my dear little canon870 p&s handled distance photographing more ably.
It was a bright sunny day, not so cold. And a perfectly placed church with perfect geometrical pattern and a perfect reflection.
A couple of shots of Hanbury Church taken on an overcast day. If you look carefully you will see my wife in the shot!
Greenwood, VA.
Built in 1914, on the site of the original church built in 1862, it's on the National Register of Historic Places.
The pews are all enclosed, and a step up from the floor, which is brick !!!

On Sunday, September 14, 1862, the bloody battle of South Mountain was fought between the forces of the Union and the Confederacy, just a few miles west of Middletown. This was followed a few days later by the terrible conflict at nearby Antietam. The wounded from both battles filled all surrounding villages. So it was in Middletown. Most buildings of sufficient size became hospitals. Zion Church being the largest building in town, and in excellent condition, was designated by the Army as a “general hospital”. This meant that this facility would receive critical patients, especially those requiring surgery. Pews were removed and were replaced by cots. The undercroft, container Sunday School rooms and the balcony were also utilized. In addition, the two-story brick building housing the Female Academy was brought into service. Hundreds of young men were brought up the beautiful columned portico into the church to be care for by Army and local physicians and ladies of the community. Many lost limbs and many died. Some were buried on church grounds.
By January 1863 the Army turned the church back to the Church Council. The church was awarded $2,395 damages for its use and was re-occupied for worship on August 30, 1863. Many years later a bronze plaque was affixed on the front of the church in recognition of its service as a general hospital with the governor of Maryland in attendance.

Zion Lutheran Church, Middletown MD, July 23, 2021
must have meet Savannah a thousand times in London, but still not satisfied. She needs to come back! This was at a half broken down church in the city, founded by Sarah Wright so the light coming through the non existing roof was pretty cool.. the catch was that we only had 10mins of natural light left.. It was a calling for pizza time
