Rural landscapes: the white prairie beacon

BETHLEHEM LUTHERAN CHURCH,
DALUM, ALBERTA
This historic Danish church is practically in the middle of nowhere on the western Canadian prairies. It was built in 1929 by the Danish immigrants in the area. The community of Dalum was established by a Danish group called Dansk Folksamfund.
Driving through the area, I was immediately impressed by the architecture and the colour palette. The sunny weather added a welcome blue to the scene.

This is a super photo, Frank. I love the Art Deco architecture, and the color contrasts captured here are excellent.
