My Corner of New Hanover
Fairview Presbyterian Church
Posted by Russ Devan (New Hanover, United States) on 12 September 2009 in Architecture and Portfolio.
A final image from last Thursday evening as I departed Marsh Creek State Park. I came upon this church on the way home with the clouds beside the steeple as they were illuminated from behind by the full moon.
"The Master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he is always doing both."

I sure hope you didn't trespass to get this shot - nicely done!

@Betsy Barron: I sure did and I learned it from the Master Trespasser herself! :)

As a card-carrying Presbyterian, all I can say is I do wish more of our churches had such a dramatic presence as this one does. Great moonlight shot, Russ.
