Saint Mark's
Saint Mark's Church is a historic stone church sitting along Main Street in New Milford, with the kind of textured facade and classic architectural details that reward close attention from a camera. The building photographs well from across the street, where you can capture the full structure framed against the sky, or move in closer to isolate the stonework, arched windows, and any ornamental details on the entrance. Overcast days are ideal here because soft, diffused light eliminates harsh shadows and brings out the depth and color of the stone. Early morning on a clear day can also work well if the light catches the front facade at a low angle. A standard 24-70mm range gives you flexibility to shoot the whole building or compress in on specific architectural elements. The surrounding streetscape and mature trees can add foreground interest depending on the season. (New Milford, Pennsylvania, United States)
