I got a new computer today and had to put on some Motts wallpaper of course. I love this one and never used it.
I grew up in a house visible in your photo from the roof of Transfiguration and went to school there for 9 years, attending Mass every weekday morning and Sundays. It was gorgeous. Thank you for photographing it again and bringing back my memories! I can fill in all the rubble with the angel murals and lights and people myself. Tragic that our society lets gems rot like this. It should have been bought by the city and kept for concerts or a community center or something.
Thanks, Motts! I'm a latecomer compared to most, but I still really enjoy all the pics!
Since that screen has come down, I'd say there are not only bats in the bellfry, but probably plenty of pigeons, too! : )
It does look like lace! How lovely and unique! I love this old church! Too bad it got abandoned by those who were supposed to love it the most.
I don't blame you one bit! You still got a really nice artistic shot from below, tho!
Hi, Motts! I realize you took this photo a few years back, but this one has to be one of my very favorites! I couldn't help but notice quite a few of your other fans asked for Wallpaper of this photo. So, I'm going to ask for the very first time: Could I please, please, purrty please havé Wallpaper? Thank you so much, ahead of time!
What a beautiful old Cathedral! It is so sad to see that it has been so neglected and allowed to fall into such disrepair! :_ (
