This old church was the former Sacred Heart Catholic church at Ranelagh. When I took my original pictures of it I was making a series of photos of local churches, especially the wooden ones because many of them were falling into disuse. The day I took this one the weather was really threatening and I liked the effect very much.
Eventually a brand new church was built next to this one to replace it and the old church at Franklin. This little building sat empty for a while but one day I went by on the bus and it was gone. I believe that someone bought it and had it transported to another location but that is all I know.
I’ve had fun trying different effects with the photo for various blogging challenges and today I did the last one in Adobe Photo Elements 2018 just for fun.

What a different atmosphere your editing gives the picture. The last two are my favourites.

It looks like one of the many clapboard churches built by New England sea captains who settled all over the world.

In Tasmania a lot of the old churches are wooden as it is a heavily forested state.

That’s a beautiful small church. I like the original and the B&W. You know I am a great fan of B&W, it always makes photos look more dramatic anyhow. But as said, your original is just fine, I like the color in it, including the dark-blue cloud formation.

The clouds really were dramatic the day I took it. David and I were out on a photo seeking drive and the weather was turning so it was good to highlight that.
