We asked ourselves that when we came upon this old church near Trenton, Wisc.
Saint Augustine Church sat majestically on the side of the road, surrounded by a field of tombstones, presumably the final resting place for many parishioners.
We tried to respect the landscape as we walked around exploring the scene.
It didn't take long to realize that although color would flatter the bright sky and rolling lawn, the scene would take on a vintage feel as black and white.
As I look at the image now, I find myself waiting for a line of 1950 cars carrying men in hats and women wearing pearl necklaces.
