 I had a particular picture in mind of another church, but after I had taken some shots of it, I walked around the block and past this one. I noticed that the sun was close to the top of the spire so I adjusted my position to make it right at the top. The face in the clouds was an unexpected bonus although I'm not sure how many people will notice it in the short amount of time spent on viewing it for voting. I know that this is likely to bomb completely because people don't like blown lights. But I think that the light of Heaven is supposed to be pretty bright.

I think the processing takes away from the drama of the sky.
