The gate of a churchyard in a village near Lancaster whose name I've forgotton (there are quite a few of these and they all have beautiful churches).

Once again, it was the shadows that attracted me.

Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 105 St Paul's church, Brookhouse. This is an interesting image to me for several reasons, but I particularly like the fact that you can't actually straighten this image up correctly, or at least so it appears. There are two reasons for this: 1. There's a fair amount of distortion with the lens (10-20mm) that I was using, so the doorway seems a bit bow-legged. 2. The tower really does slant at that crazy angle. As you can see, the sides are stepped. It's a sort of half tower, half steeple job.

St Paul's Church belltower, Brookhouse. A bit blown towards the bottom right but still not bad considering the day's prevailing weather.

The arched main doorway of St James the Less church, Westminster.

This is a nice shot, but it's a little too bright (which is why it's not in colour; shooting in monochrome allowed me to balance out the light better).

The church itself is a weird one; a big red brick tower in the middle of blocks of office buildings. Still, I like interesting things, which is why I took the photo. Also, I like the fact that it's called St James the Less.
