Until last Sunday, I had never been inside this marvelous St. Louis landmark. Some people from my choir who are part of another very special choral group were singing there. It is an awe-inspiring sight. I had a great deal of difficulty finding the correct white balance for the shot, since the entire altar area is lit with tungsten, yet the main chancel is filled with natural light from the huge windows. So I'm stuck with too blue and too warm, unless anyone has a suggestion !! More kitchen ceiling tear-out today. . and I'm already getting tendinitis in my elbow. . oh the joys of growing old. www.flickr.com/photos/justsharing/2523513851/ For a much better series of photos of the same place, here's a direct link to "St. Joseph Shrine" photos from the amazing photostream of LOENSIS 0465_3_4 custom ps
