Beautiful work, Tony. So sad that this lovely building is used for storage!
A90Six in reply to Avril Brand’s comment

The good thing is that it is being used for something or else it would probably have gone the way of other old buildings and be a complete ruin by now. Glad yo liked it! :) Tony.

Oh that almost feels like a betrayal to use the church as storage… It is beautiful still, Love the light effects :O)
