Mission Concepcion was established in the mid 1700's, over two hundred years ago. It is one of five missions in the greater San Antonio area, the most famous being the Alamo where over 186 Texans lost their lives.

I took this picture with a Sony A300 DSLR and a Sony 18-70mm lens, f11, 1/320 sec., ISO 100, and Aperture Priority Mode. Tejaswrangler :)

Ernest, thanks for viewing these pictures. I and many others would love to visit Australia and take some pictures. Australia has a proud people, and a colorful past, lots of opportunity to take some great pictures. Tejaswrangler :)

Hello Hal81, I think that regular church services are still being held in some of the Missions, and if so, maybe they have weddings there too, just not sure. Thanks for viewing the pictures. Tejaswrangler :)
