Canon Image Challenge 142 : Places of Worship

I'm intrigued by the myriad types of places of worship -- from opulent cathedrals to simple shrines. Submit images that include a church, temple, mosque, monastery, synagogue, chapel, shrine or any other religious structure ... or even just a religious location or a close-up of a religious symbol. It can be any religion, any religious structure or location. If it is a building, it can be an image of the inside or outside.

Be sure to tell us a little bit about your entry.

Above all, have fun!
