No, this has absolutely nothing to do with Uncle Bill's Evil Empire... ...it's much more aesthetic than that.

This is the last image I'll be posting today from the ruined church I first posted earlier today.

Hope you like.

Have a great Sunday evening all.

In photography when you've left your specialist kit at home and macro isn't an option you have only one choice...

Pop a 50mm lens on your DSLR and get in as close as you can - mine focuses down to approx. 8 inches (20cm) and that means I can still grab images like this one.

Now I'm not saying this image is in any way spectacular, but it's quite acceptable as a close shot. Of course it doesn't really compare to using a macro lens, which allows you to get in very much closer...


...but even so, geting up close and personal to your subject can be a lot of fun.

Look Through Any Window

Look through any window, yeah
What do you see
Cloudy skies and plants abound
Everywhere you look around...

Not quite the Hollies I'm afraid... but I quite liked the view through this ruined window.

I wonder who used to gather and worship here? A small congregation I'm sure, since the remains of the church indicate a tiny building. I'm sure of one thing though...

...whoever built this now derelict church did so with pride and passion... I'd bet they would be horrified to see it in such a poor condition now. I guess this arch will last a few years yet...

Natural high contrast thanks to Mother Nature.
