Logan Utah Temple (north side)

Logan, UT

"The Logan Utah Temple (formerly the Logan Temple) is the 4th constructed
and 2nd operating temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Completed in 1884.

Roughly 25,000 people worked on the Logan Temple. Rocks were hauled from
Green Canyon, mostly during the winter because it was easier to haul the
rocks by sleigh than by wagon. The timber used for the temple was hauled
from Logan Canyon. As completion of the temple neared, women in the area
were asked to make carpets for the temple, since commercially made carpet
could not be bought in Utah at that time. The women spent two months
working to hand make two thousand square yards of carpet."

from Wikipedia

the temple is very hard to shoot at night due to the large differences
in light between the two towers and the rest of the building.
This is a two row pano with upper row exposed at 1/20s
and the lower row at 0.5s. Another exposure at 1/350s was made for
the moon.
