Rev. Thomas H. Trees View

I have always been fanscinated with what the rector or pastor sees from the pulpit on Sunday morning. I am sure Reverend Trees sees the back of the sancutrary clearer than this image. I only had my monopod with me but would like to take the image again on a tripod properly.
