This is so what I think of as truly American. I really love the grey and white, and the simple shapes.

Terrific shot! I love the shape of that door. You really came all the way up, didn't you? I Sooooo would have rather been on the coast visiting with you and Marcos than dodging tornadoes in Arkansas! You're making me want to run out to the beach right now! :)

I can understand why Andrea thinks this is typical of American churches, because in some ways it really is. We have a lot of church styles---including ultra modern---but when compared to the age-old churches in Europe, this must feel very minimal, no-nonsense, and hard core rural americana. Because you caught it with that flat bleached light on the facade, you made the frontal nature of these old facades very bold and stark---as they should feel. And you caught it against a dark saturated-blue sky, and that gives real contrast to the gray. And the little dabs of color in the "rose window" above the entrance (it's a very circular rose, but still a reference to the old Medieval rose window, the rose being a symbol for Christ) are just perfect as foils for all that gray. A lovely straight forward shot; and the light on the facade is perfect.
