Taken on Saturday at the old San Ysidro Church in Corrales, New Mexico.
The walls of the church are made from earthen adobe bricks with a mud and straw overlay.
San Ysidro was the Patron Saint of Farmers and Agriculture.

I like the first shot of the wooden tower. It almost looks like it could have been taken anytime, anywhere 100 years or so ago.
loved these pictures ! I just sent you a FB friend request !
Wow, neat pics! I like this monochrome thing, have never heard of this one, will have to go check it out!
Very nice pictures...hope you had a great day filming!!!
Too cool, the older a building the better, great shots..:-)
That is a cool church and so much history behind that! I just think it's neat how it is built with the bricks, mud and straw!
Great pictures!!
I like the wooden tower with the sheet metal roof as well. Did you take any interior pix?
Excellent photos! I think the first one is my favorite.
I, too, love the first one! The monochrome makes a great picture.

Lisa,
My dad is visiting from Stanley (is that near you?) and he's a photographer too. I thought you might like to see one of my favorite photos of his. Very o'keefe - esqe...
(visit http://spiritpath.net/ and click on coyote's camera)
You both take such wonderful pictures. I'm lucky if I don't get the back side of my target... :D
Love them Lisa!
Almost sepia looking too.
You have such great history there!

I love the lines and patterns in the first photo. Lovely.
Fabulous mono shots!
What a delightful church! I love the signs in monochrome too.
Did you get that sepia with the camera, or on the computer? The steeple photo really is excellent; great job!
So when did all the other changes happen around here?? I know I missed a couple of days, but...hey, it's like a whole new blog! I like the way you framed the title between the llamas; very nice.
Nice pictures Lisa. Were they still working on the mudding. If I'm not mistaken this weekend was the annual mudding weekend.

Nice photos, Lisa!
You changed your blog! I know I don't have a widescreen because it doesn't show your sidebar anymore, LOL! I have to scroll over to the right to see it. Weird!
I love the llama picture! ;)
What a great variety of angles in the first one and they show up so well in b&w.
I don't know where my post went??
I love how those pictures came out in monochrome!
I had a great time!
Lookin' good! Geez you see some beautiful things. I need to hire you as our NM tour guide.
