> Graham, Week 37 is a FANTASTIC image. With a great story behind it. That

> seeing art work and sculptures made by Leonardo Da vinci & Michael

> That being said, you captured this beautiful village church, a work of
> architectural beauty and captured it's essence. I can't even imagine the
> things that happened in and around the community of this church.
> Great job, Graham.
