Most churches are in the middle of towns but how do you hide the town in the photograph?
The church itself is in Middletown Springs, Vermont. It is in the middle of the busy town square. But, Moose knew about this spot and took us there late one afternoon. It offers a view of the steeple amidst the colored autumn leaves but the town and its other buildings are completely obscured by the trees and hills. I was amazed and thrilled to see this view of the church steeple from our high vantage point which is a well-guarded secret, and it made the perfect photographic opportunity for us.
