This week in SSC:

"Architecture"

I went into town to look for something interesting for our challenge and found this pretty church called "Our Lady Star of the Sea" that was built in the early 1950s. My mom took us here a few times when I was little and I remember thinking it was really pretty. It was exciting to see it again and get the opportunity to photograph the inside too. I hope you will enjoy it.. (More in the PiPs.)

A well taken set of photos amd a lovely example of 50ies architecture! It looks welcoming and warm, whereas I remember our 50ies church as rather cold and forbidding...

Danke, Gudrun. I remember that too of the church we usually went to when I was a child but the light and colors here were so nice it makes me want to repaint my living room. :))

une église lumineuse et dépouillée. Il me semble que c 'est une église catholique ( et non réformée). En ce moment difficile , je pense que beaucoup de gens se tournent vers Dieu !

Karen's Place club has replied to Nautilus club
You're right, Nautilus. This is a Catholic church.

I think in times like this, people look for whatever gives them comfort.

Hi Karen

A very nice picture, which I really like. And a nice looking church too.

Fantastic colours ! So well taken!

In England all churches are closed (any denomination), and all gatherings of people in numbers greater than two is prohibited...

Best Wishes, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!

Thanks so much, Peter. It's the same here. I think they're mostly closed with mass online if you like.

Best wishes to you too. :)
