Step into my church

....Take your time...Step into my church... take a seat on one of

the hard wooden benches ... clear your eyes... here is no central

heat and no electricity ... only the incoming light from the window

and the portal... and there will be no rector in the pulpit. Sit

down and listen to the sea and to the whispering wind. The sea and

the wind will preach to you... and after some time step out on the

balcony......

Hej Bente

Tak skal du have, Peder - for de pæne ord.... Og jo - det er Stevns Gamle Kirke. Mvh Bente

Hi Bente!

I like this photo, but also the one in color, they both have a nice athmosphere!

Regards, Pim

Bente, with your words this image is poetry. Beautiful light. Well seen.

Peta ... thanks for your kind comment and good to see you here again.

She has a way with words doesn't she Peta ....... sol

Thanks Bente.

 

Ken she makes it sound and look like a place I'd want to photograph, so she may end up with me on her doorstep, when I'm rich and kinda infamous, asking for directions.:)

I like the detail in this, Bente ... but I have to say that I like the little bit of blue in the color version better.......

I think the b&w looks more balanced, with less competition between light sources. However, I kind of like that bit of conflict in the color version. This one is very nice, too, just a different feel to it.

Very beautiful prospective and B&W....

Beautifull composition and nice recomendation....great sea and wind music .

Peta and Ken ...Oh .. I like being in third person when you are talking so nice of me. If you ever should happen to stand on my door step - rich or not so rich and famous or infamous - you should all be so welcome.

 

Kim and Lou Ann - I agree with you both... better balanced, more detailed ... but missing the charming blue.

 

Thanks for the comments to all ... and for the welcome if you stand on my door step it goes for everyone too.

You are a dear and sweet soul, love the sound of the sea, The Song of the Gulls, Alas, your Masters Voice in the Wind.......Thank You !*R*

As much as I would dearly love to be in this place, your words and photo make me feel as if I am.

 

A very spiritual text and photo.

Bente, I love the simplicity.

I was Catholic raised......I have been sitting on my knees, but we had those 'grey/purple pillows' to protect us. I did go to the church with my mother (she died 33 years ago) and we always burned candles for people who needs them. I am still doing this, burning candles I mean, but I don't go to the church, I am now listening to myself, and to the sea, and to my friends, that's what I believe. I don't believe in institutions, but in real life. Thanks for sharing this GREAT picture, you did do something with me.......I am not English, but I think you understand me.

This is lovely in its simplicity and starkness. An altar that leads to the sea, is one well worth visiting...

I love your composition here,....clean and ellegant,

the B&W tones are perfect,....very nicely done !

Not much else to be said, but the lighting is beautiful, the subject matter is eye catching, very, very nice. You do such a wonderful job!

Beautifully exposed. Also, the shadow in the window and the railing viewed through the door very nicely complement the regular pattern of the rows of pews.
