Fooling around in the rain, hoping for some cool reflections. The red cast in the right image is from a stop light that is just out of the shot.

There is a telephone pole right in front of the church, and there is no way to shoot around it. That's the urban landscape for you. When I got home, I noticed in the thumbnail, that the dark pole looked like a diptych "break". So I decided to put the "break" in the pole. I'm not sure if it's the best solution. I suspect the shot would be better as it was. But this is the diptych side challenge.....

The colours and the glow are fantastic. The pole works fine as the division

nice glow to these images they work well together which is not always easy with architectural shots.

Very nice use of the natural dip break - in fact, just take the width of the pole all the way as the break and it'll work fine! Love the colors you ended up with.

That is a great architectural style on those kinds of churches...I like your presentation of the church in the diptych. The traffic signal color casts are great!
