Church steeple at San Xavier Mission del Bac, Tucson AZ

This is the steeple of Christ Church, in Philadelphia, arguably the most historic church in the United States. At one time, this was the tallest structure in the colonies. The first black minister, in a major denomination, was ordained here. There is a chandelier, with candles, hanging from the ceiling. It was lit this month for a wedding, and also lit for the wedding of Benjamin Franklin's daughter.

 

The tour guide said that this church was built around the original building, but that materials from that original building were used to make the steeple, so those materials have been in use since 1695. The newer church (this one) was finished in 1744.

 

Blacks were baptized and educated at this church, and the first African-American priest was ordained here.

Composed of two photographs. One was the walk, and the other the steeple. Both taken the same day about five minutes apart, but in completely different directions. The montage was easy and looked OK, but it took a long time to try to get the lighting to direct the focus away from the trees to the steeple. Sometimes when the world isn't right I fix it, and this is the result.

Taken with Nikon D3400 50mm lens, this was taken near Seckington castle.

Evening light earlier tonight behind North Church in downtown Portsmouth, NH. The clouds cleared just enough for the sun to come through and provide some color to the backdrop.

Remote, wind-swept Steeple Jason Island is the northwesternmost of the Falkland Islands. Thanks to the absence of cats and rats, birdlife abounds here.

All Saints Episcopal Church is a beautiful building inside and out. I had never noticed the unusual cross that tops the steeple.
