I love to photograph churches. We were at a farmer's market recently in San Diego and I happened to walk by an interesting looking church so, camera in hand of course, I stepped in for a look. Well, it turned out to be one of the most beautiful churches I have ever visited. Not only did I receive permission to photograph, I was told all about the history of the church, building stories, all kinds of interesting stuff about the first Italian church in San Diego. The church is stunning with ornate stained glass and detailed wall murals throughout. The farmer's market outside quickly took a backseat to my new find. Here are a few photos of Our Lady of the Rosary:

St. Mary's Basilica - Downtown Phoenix
I've driven by St. Mary's Basilica in downtown Phoenix a million times. After visiting the San Diego church I figured I'd grab my camera and see what was inside this church - and I'm glad I did. The couple working at the gift shot couldn't have been nicer and once again I found myself admiring the architecture and artwork of a beautiful church - an inspirational place for people of any denomination, especially photographers.
