I will be working near the town of Longlac for the next couple of weeks and have always wanted to photograph the old church on the nearby reserve. I got my wish.:) The church is a rather large structure situated on a point of land all by itself and has been abandoned and left in a state of disrepair for quite a while. As a result it has been condemed and closed up. Too bad. I'd love to get inside.
Outside in a small stand of trees is a statue that seems to have been maintained a little better than the church.

Not every day you find a condemned church! Cool find.

Cool old church...Seems to me I spent some time in Longlac in the 70's when I worked for CN as a gang cook.

Cool series Aub. As MA said you don't see a condemned church very often. Nice find.

Nice captures Aub, and has definitely seen better days hasn't it? As you, I would love to get inside though.
