French Quarter Churches

Framed by the columns of Saint Philip's Church and the facade of the French Huguenot Church is Ministries Hall, part of the Saint Philip's Church complex. These historic places form part of the nucleus of Charleston's French Quarter. As on many Sunday mornings over the centuries, the sound of voices singing hymns can be heard flowing out of these churches as one strolls past.

    The morning light on those columns is terrific. Dawn and sunset are such a great time to take photos.

    Wonderful facades - and yet it's the little hint of railings in the bottom left corner that creates the masterful balance.
