The chapel looks rather smashing, Paul, and you have captured it well, I
reckon. I love the lighting and the texture of the wood and slats.
The shot of Billy's Bowling Lanes is nicely duck-egg-blue, so I would not
change it to monochrome. I remember watching a bowling competition on US TV
once, while I was staying in an Officers' Club somewhere, and I could not watch
for more than a few minutes without suicidal thoughts coming into my head.
