Neither Use Nor Ornament"Wading neck deep in a swamp, your revolver is neither use nor ornament until you have had time to clean it" Mary H. Kingsley (1897)
Nowadays I carry a small camera with me wherever I go, but I don’t like to take photographs during Mass. Fortunately the seminarians were standing in prayer as I entered chapel just before Mass started – so I quickly snapped a picture!
You still have pews? How wonderful.

The last time I went to Mass in England there were still pews – and that was only eighteen months back..

You’ve captured this beautifully.

Thank you.
The electrical power went down and suddenly the chapel was filled with new patterns of light and shade.

Part of the secret of photography – being there. This is lovely.
