St. Augustine's Church is locally known as the “Wee Church on the Walls” and is thought to be the site of the 6th Century monastery in the Doire Calgach area on the east side of the River Foyle near the city walls. According to oral and documented history, the site was granted by a local king. The monastery then remained in the hands of the federation of Columban churches who regarded St. Colmcille as their spiritual mentor. The present building dates from 1872 and is in the design of 13th Century gothic style.

I took this image as we walked on the walls of Derry. I thought it might make a nice B&W because of the great clouds contrasted with the old stones. Which do you prefer?

The B&W does not have the pop that the color one does. It seems the center church blends in on the BW.
That me and not always the best judge.

Color. This is a beautiful photo. I like how you used the hydrangeas to take our eye away from the modern buildings in the background. Please COVID go away so we may travel again. Thanks for sharing.

I normally prefer B&W for churches, but color seems better for this one.
