    I like the angle you used, and there is something about a church steeple against a blue sky like that I just love!

    It looks kind of Gothic! I like the composition with the palm tree in the frame.

    It looks great with that blue sky. I have to come to Phoenix in May. I am not looking forward to the heat.

    This is the church,
    This is the steeple.
    Open the door,
    See all the people.

    Remember that little hand trick?

    Terrific photo...what a great sky!

    It is an impressive steeple. For Phoenix, those dates make it pretty old, I'll bet.
