Tumacacori Facade by Linda Gregory

A national historical park, the Tumacacori Mission is located about 45 miles south of Tucson, Arizona. The name “Tumacácori” may have been derived from two O’odham words, chu-uma and kakul, having reference to a flat, rocky place. Father Kino established it as a mission in January 1691, one day before Guevavi, making it the oldest mission site in Arizona. For many years, though, it was a visita or visiting station of the mission headquarters at Guevavi. During most of those years, it was located on the east side of the Santa Cruz River and was called San Cayetano de Tumacácori. Services were held in a small adobe structure built by the Pima inhabitants of the village. After the Pima rebellion of 1751, the mission was moved to the present site on the west side of the river and renamed San José de Tumacácori. Here the first actual church edifice was built. Photographed with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50. / “Tumacacori Facade” has been featured in: / CHRISTIAN CHURCHES, STATUES AND CROSSES/November, 2009 /

Chapel of the Crucifix by annalisa56

Chapel of the Crucifix in the church of San Frencesco in Brescia (Italy) In 1700 there was transported in this chapel this table of century 300 (m. 4, 10 X 2.60) and since then the chapel was dedicated to the Crucifix. / The work is the beginning of the three hundred, very rare example of Lombard paintings on wood and is of remarkable quality. / Christ died tilted his head as if in listening to the prayers of humanity and from the side and hands the blood gush of red precious. / This is not the Crocifisso glorious Byzantine art but the Christ Redeemer in abandonment of death. / The table is cut in the shape of a cross, whose margins had been a slight frame with baroque decorations. The Soas is 1600. Camera used: / NIKON COOLPIX S500

Camera Nikon D300 on tripod. / Took nine exposures and used Photomatix to create HDR image. / Didn’t really like the first blend so selected three exposures to run through Photomatix again. / The exposures I finally used were -3, 00, +2. Yes, I know not equal but I wanted a dark broody look to the finished image. / Finally ran through CS4 to finish off.

York Minster Organ by Jason Connolly

Went on a bubblemeet to the historic city of York in Yorkshire… Myself, my wife Donna (her first meet up with some of the redbubble guys) met up with good friends and bubblersSteve Smith (pictured) his good lady Lesley G and Redbubbler Richard ( clickinhistory ) . / Had a fabulous time despite half the country being flooded out, we were given a beautiful days weather there, the river wasn’t far off flooding it’s banks though.. / This is a shot of Europe’s greatest Gothic Cathedral, York minster as shot from Precentor’s court. / Here’s some info on York Cathedral from from Wikipedia: / York Minster is a Gothic cathedral in York, England and is one of the largest of its kind in Northern Europe alongside Cologne Cathedral. The Minster is the seat of the Archbishop of York, the second-highest office of the Church of England, and is cathedral for the Diocese of York; it is run by a Dean and Chapter under the Dean of York. The formal title of York Minster is The Cathedral and Metropolitan Church of St Peter in York. Services in the Minster are sometimes regarded as on the high church Anglo-Catholicism side of the Anglican scale. / It has a very wide Decorated Gothic nave and chapter house, a Perpendicular Gothic choir and east end, and Early English north and south transepts. The nave contains the West Window, constructed in 1338, and over the Lady Chapel in the east end is the Great East Window, (finished in 1408), the largest expanse of medieval stained glass in the world. In the north transept is the Five Sisters Window, each lancet being over 16 metres (52 ft) high. The south transept contains the famous Rose window. / Official York Cathedral website / The fire of 1829 destroyed the organ and the basis of the present organ dates from 1832, when Elliot and Hill constructed a new instrument. This organ was reconstructed in 1859 by William Hill and Sons. The case remained intact, but a large amount of new pipework was introduced. / In 1901, J.W. Walker and Sons undertook reconstruction. Walkers added a considerable amount of new pipework. / A small amount of work was undertaken in 1915 by Harrison & Harrison and the famous Tuba Mirabilis was added. Other minor work was undertaken in fits and starts by the same firm until 1928. In 1961 J.W. Walker rebuilt it, and it was cleaned in 1982. / The fire of 1984 affected the organ but not irreparably; the damage hastened the time for a major restoration, which was begun in 1991 and finished a year later by Geoffrey Coffin, who had at one time been assistant organist at the Minster. / Details of the organ from the National Pipe Organ Register. / Shot handheld with a Nikon D300 and Sigma 10-20mm lens / f5 / 1/30 sec / ISO 2000 / 10mm
