I have always admired the beauty of this local old Church but the way the steeple is mounted almost hanging off the front has always baffled me. There has to be some logical reason why it wasn’t mounted ten feet back but other than it having ornate woodwork in the front, it is a mystery to me. The patch of purple iris shown here was almost too close to the church for a good shot including the church but I am satisfied with this result. An interesting observation I made is no matter where I moved the steeple on that roof it did not look as good as at the edge!
