Did you pay the light to do that?

That is beautiful.

No kidding Weebs, there are times I can't believe how perfect the light is in Motts' work!

I love the colours in this one, and the detail just astounds me.

I wander how the carved all of that stone. Nobody out there today could do anything like that. It's something built by MAN unlike the drab architecture to day which is all done on computers by men in three piece suits.

Sad that they demolish beauty to replace it with ugly

BTW Motts I think this would make a fine Wallpaper. Don't you agree?

No, Hobo, it was the chapel of a Catholic girl's school, Convent of the Sacred Heart, Eden Hall. I attended daily Mass in that chapel, as did all the students and all the nuns. I'm afraid we took its beauty for granted; I appreciate what we have lost more than I appreciated it when I had it. Hopefully, a lesson learned.

I am from Monterrey, Mexico, and studied there for a year, in 1947. Now my grandson who lives in the U.S., sent me this, that was a surprise. I am so sad to hear that Eden Hall, the whole school, was burnt down. But anyway, the pictures brought back so many good memories..
Maybe I have forgotten my english, but not what I experienced there.
