In the Village Church (England July 2008)


There are several frescos in the church. This is the brightest and therefore presumably the newest. Somewhere I have the printed sheet with these details, but I have mislaid it.

The others are quite a bit older:

This is the ferryman who carried Christ across the ford and hence got his name, Christopher (oferer of Christ—not sure if "oferer" is spelled correctly).

The Tree of Life

Very poor pictures interior; the last is enhanced and so more vivid here than it really is, but it's rather dim in the church and I had no tripod and, well, I have a lot to learn about this photography business.
