First Congregational Church, Silverton, Colorado, July, 1975
Constructed in 1881, the First Congregational Church in Silverton, Colorado, stands as one of the state’s oldest surviving churches. Featuring a tall slender steeple, a distinctive bell tower (both added ten years after initial construction had ended) and Gothic-influenced arched entrance, the edifice makes a profound statement of elegant simplicity in this small mountain town. Taken on a late July afternoon with a Nikon F2 equipped with a 35mm f3.5 Nikkor Perspective Control Lens on Kodachrome II film. this image on the very best color film ever made preserves clean neutral whites even in shadowed indirect light, a hallmark of Kodachrome. The perspective control lens preserved parallelism of the building’s vertical lines, so critical in classic architectural photography. These two factors combine to subtly contrast with the waning sunlight on the distant peak.
