Having seen the spectacular old Methodist Church (Uniting) in Ross, built in 1885, I thought I would try to give it a more dramatic look. As you know we have already seen how this church from one angle looks very similar to the famous Church at Auvers painted by Vincent van Gogh.

 

That sky was quite dramatic all afternoon, so making it a feature of this shot was very important. I've called the picture "The Spire" and had in mind William Golding's novel of the same name (1964). It can be described as "a dark and powerful portrait of one man's will", and deals with the construction of the 404-foot high spire loosely based on the famous Salisbury Cathedral.

... que j'ai trouvé dans le Ried Alsacien, appartenant à la grande famille des Rosacées. La Filipendule commune est répartie dans presque toute la France ; nul dans le Nord . Elle est protégée en région Basse-Normandie et Alsace Lorraine. C'est une plante vivace qui apprécie les prés et les bois et pousse surtout dans les sols acides ou calcaires.

Taille de la fleur : 10 à 15 mm - floraison mai à juillet

South spire of the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco, California taken after dark on a night with the fog hovering at the top of the spires.

View of Cathedral Spires and Black Elk Wilderness from the Needles Highway. The Needles are part of the Black Hills region of south-western South Dakota. Needles are granite pillars, very sharp and dramatic, scattered at the top of the ridge. They are accessible by a two-lane road that merits the name of a highway only because it is, well, rather high. It is fun to drive and the scenery is impressive, especially in Autumn.

 

Note the map on the right. Unorganized Territory - yes, that sounds quite accurate. :-)

Tonight may well be the end of the celebrations but who knows!

I liked this against the blue sky on a warm day.

From the archives. Spires of the Grand Palace in Bangkok, Thailand.

Second in my landscapes from the archives. This shot of a mix of rock spires, golden aspens, still green aspens and conifers was taken 12 years ago in the West Elk Wilderness near Stormy Pass in Colorado.

Not really the name. I just made it up. Somewhere along the 17-Mile Drive, between Monterey and Carmel, California.

The Church of St Peter and St Paul is in the market town of Ormskirk, Lancashire, England. Dating from no later than the 12th century, it is one of only three churches in England to have both a tower and spire, and the only one to have them both at the same end of the church. It is an active Anglican parish church in the Diocese of Liverpool. The church is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building.
