GALLERY #2 – First Baptist Church – Elmira, NY 02/14/25 Fire Aftermath – Shot on 02/15/25
FROM GLORIOUS GLASS… to ….WEEPING WINDOWS
Spent this cold, early afternoon today at the “Scene of the Crime” …. of last night’s devastatingly destructive fire capturing the Charred and still Smoldering remains of the former First Baptist Church in Downtown Elmira. I know a lot of folks have posted pics so far, but I’m adding a bit of a twist to my first few folders of them.
Over the years I was lucky enough to shoot a few Weddings in this Grand Baptist Temple, and after I returned to the warmth of my 211 Studio from my shooting, I dug…and I mean DUG out some images from a Wedding I shot there on September 1 of 2007 so that you could get a small taste of some details of just how stunningly beautiful this building was when it was still being used, and what a loss it truly is to our community. From the Exquisite Stained Glass Windows, to outside in the long lost craftsmanship found in the Beautiful Stonework pretty much everywhere you look, to just a couple shots showing how large & bright the sanctuary was. ENJOY!
