Christ church choral area - b & w

because there's so much color here, I wanted to try to remove that so you can see the simple details and patterns that have reflected themselves over and over in the architecture. The arched celing, the arches of the rear alter area, and the fronts of the bishop/choral seats. The round circular and diamond patterns on the floor reflecting the triangles in the celing and the peaks of the front altar columns. The "fleur de lis" crosses to the cross on the altar to the styleized one in the center of the floor shamrocks.

Now, on to the color - where your eyes will notice the brillance and not the architecture.
