congratulations coco! :)

Agreed...I always think of the poor bastard whos job it was to mop the floors everynight, take out the trash, fix burned out lights...etc etc....I wonder what they would say if they saw "their" buildings now. They're probably rolling in their graves.

This is brilliant in b&w.

Wow. That is magnificent.

It's beautiful!!

I haven't been on here in forever.lol I'm now almost eight months pregnant, I'm having a baby boy! Yay.lol

Ah i thought you where under the bells in this shot ether way grate angle.

it makes me sad to see a sacred place falling apart

WOW

I agree DaddyMedic

The chest looks like one of the chests priests use to keep their Stoles in. Leads me to believe this may be a shot looking out from the old sacristy.

Dangit, Mike beat me to it.

Thank you for another great gallery Mr. Motts.

This could almost be construed as your signature lonely chair shot.

Makes me think of all the people who went there every Sunday. That was their "everyday (week?) existence", and we'll never know them, and they'll never know us. Wonder where they are now, and what they're doing. Now expand that thought to all of the other buildings on this site (or on the planet) and all the people who spent their daily lives at work or living there (also include all the buildings that don't exist anymore, built and gone long before any of us was born), then try to think of the endless number of lives and the sheer Variety of situations and events in those lives, all completely different than every others. Then, just for kicks, expand that to try to imagine every life ever lived, from birth to death, that ever happened in the history of humanity......makes my brain hurt a little.
