Iglesia de Muxia, Galicia

Photographed near noon into the glare, I wanted to convey the heat and desolation of this coastal church. A few fett behind me grew the tadtiest gooseneck barnacles I've ever had.

Much as I don't like using the word "juxtaposition", it really works here. The church really seems to grow from the rocks that I presume were used to build it. A well thought out photograph.
 
Wonderful depth of field. Great composition. Lots of elements which were handled very well.Bill
 
Thank you all for your feedback. Galicia is an amazing region of coastal landscape and celtic culture, mixed with a rich historical background. I'd love to return with large format, as most of the scenes I photographed, fell within Weston's definition of distance and beauty: "If it is farther than 500 yards from the car, it is not photogenic."
