One thing about this place is that it was the first time I’d encountered the names of Saints Cyril and Methodius.
Another thing is that, while I am generally deterred by locked front doors on churches, in this case I decided to walk around the building and discovered that the back door was unlocked.
And I am pretty sure you can figure out what I did then.

I’ve been busy lately printing images for a show* and haven’t had time to get out and make new images.
So, here’s one from a few years ago, when I took a little weekend roadtrip and found this church.

*My collaborator VC Torneden and I have a show opening next month in Tulsa. Our original concept was 66 images each, but a few things happened along the way to getting it all printed and now it’s up to 111 images each. So, yeah – that’s what I’ve been doing.

I remember when I saw this a couple of years ago – I almost hyperventilated at the sight of two things that were so different, yet somehow almost the same.
I remember my traveling companions rolling their eyes at my breathless state.
I remember making the photo.
What I don’t remember is why I never got around to posting it until now…
