Merry Christmas! I will be catching up after the weekend.
I have shots from three churches today for the occasion. Southminster United Church is a regular photo subject for me. I photographed it during the day, with the snowy evergreen off to the side of the main entrance giving a Christmas feel to the shot. I also photographed the Christmas lights outside that entrance at night, along with the lit windows from outside, with wreaths visible.
Dominion-Chalmers United Church is downtown, and it's one that I've never photographed in full. I was passing by one evening, and there were lights on in the church, including from what I recall is a side chapel. These five windows, showing Christ and the authors of the Gospels, were illuminated.
I finish with the wreaths and decorations on the doors and gate of St. Paul's-Eastern United Church in Sandy Hill, which I showed you during Doors Open.
Such a pretty little church. Love the wreath decorations. And especially love the one featured in the last photo - so pretty with the white of the snow framing it. Happy Christmas.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Churce.
ReplyDeleteAnd you have snow !!!! We don't have any, and so it's not like Christmas time feeling at all. I love your new header, it looks fantastic.
I wish you Merry Christmas.
