Terrific job on those tricky interior exposures, Tom. I especially like #2 and the stained glass. Must be a fantastic experience to see in person!


Thank you Linda for taking a look and for your comments. I appreciate it. Honestly, my favorite of the group was the one of the stairway. I tried some different shooting positions and ended up sitting on the floor and metering for the large square pedestal. Some tweaks in Lightroom were also helpful.

Great images for sure. The inside pictures remind me of European churches.

The Painted Churches are a group of churches, not actually in the town of Schulenburg, but in small communities in the surrounding area with place names like High Hill, Dubina, and Praha. They were established by German, Czech, and Polish immigrants in the late nineteenth century. They have become popular tourist attractions because of their elaborately and colorfully painted interiors. At first glance, some of the interiors appear to be stone or brickwork, but in fact are beautifully painted wood surfaces. We made our first visit to the churches in 2017 and a second visit in June of this year. The first 4 images were taken in 2017 and the last 3 in June 2018. Comments welcome and I hope you enjoy.
