Christmas in Salt Lake City is never complete without a visit to Temple Square to see the lights. The Salt Lake Temple is an impressive architectural masterpiece that took 40 years to build. It is an icon of Utah and the LDS church. During the warmer months, the grounds are resplendent with flowers and manicured landscaping.
So many cities throughout the world have amazing religious buildings. We found this beautiful ceiling in Bath Abbey, Bath, England.
IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A PHOTO OR TWO (OR THREE…) THAT FEATURE RELIGIOUS BUILDINGS.
Everyone is welcome to participate, even if your blog isn’t about photography. Here’s how it works:
- Each week, I’ll come up with a theme and post a photo that I think fits. You take photographs based on your interpretation of the theme, and post them on your blog (a new post!) anytime before the following Thursday, when the next photo theme will be announced.
- To make it easy for others to check out your photos, title your blog post “A Photo a Week Challenge: (theme of the week)” and be sure to use the “postaday″ and “Photo a Week” tags.
- Come back here and post a link to your image in the comments for this challenge.
- Follow nancy merrill photography so that you don’t miss out on weekly challenge announcements.



Beautiful.That ceiling is amazing.
I know! My husband, the structural engineer, said it’s called a fan vault pattern. It’s a beautiful building. We were so glad we made it to Bath on our trip. 🙂
Here is mine.
The lights in Temple Square look lovely.
I’ve gone for a hint of christmas too: http://travelwithintent.com/2015/12/18/masterpieces-christmas-cathedrals-london/
They do an amazing job every year. 🙂
The lights are so beautiful, as is that ceiling. So much work must have gone into its structure.
It is amazing.
The Temple is as impressive with Christmas decorations as it is in daylight beauty. The ceiling in an Abbey is pure lace.
