Thank you Karin. There are a whole LOT of hymns that would sound good with this organ in the background.

These are amazing instruments and you got a nice capture. I live near Philadelphia Pa. and there is a Macy's, formerly Wanamaker's, that has pipe organ. when it was built in the early 1900's it had 8,000 pipes. Old man Wanamaker didn't like it so more pipes were added to a total of 28,500 pipes. NPR has a Wanamaker organ hour every week. I have been there and it is impossible for me to describe the sensation of hearing and feeling this instrument.

Fantastic, superb photography Bob. I am sure it was taken in Paris, I was there in the film days, shots like yours were impossible.
