Standing on the beach and looking back at the city during sunset, this church steeple caught my eye.

I have processed it into a graphic and finished it with a frame.

 

Have a great weekend, everyone!

We don’t have too many churches around here that light up their steeples at night anymore. I was pleased when I saw this one. They have so much character. This one is in Winchendon, MA.

Deep clouds were meandering about the sun. The light was diffuse enough that this subject was only a little backlit. This made it reasonable to try on my point and shoot.

Saturday provided a break from the rainy days we had been having so after work I immediately went out to the Country Club Plaza to catch the refurbishment of these beams of light at a local church near the Plaza water fountain. The blue water was in honor of the UMKC graduates.

 

Narrative taken from a fellow photographer--

When Frank Lloyd Wright designed the Community Christian Church in 1940, he envisioned beacons of light forming a “Steeple of Light.” That part of his original concept, however, was not completed until 1994, thanks to the work of Dale Eldred, chair of the sculpture dept. at the Kansas City Art Institute. At the time, four powerful spotlights were installed on the roof where their beams pierced the night sky until they went dark a couple of years ago. This past weekend, though, the beams were turned on again with newly-installed lights. The return of the new “light steeple” marked the church’s return to in-person services after the darkness of the pandemic.

Yes...another shot from the distant archives. I've posted another, wider view of this same scene, but I haven't shot anything lately that I want to post so here you go. :-)

some of the steeples around town caught my eye, the sky with the clouds really added to this shot

The steeple of St Johns Anglican church Camden has towered over the surrounding district since 1849 and has become without doubt the greatest feature of Camden.

The sun sets on the Sovereign Grace Church in Marlton. It was cold and windy all afternoon; you can see that in the sky.
