Inspired by Flickr's "Project 365" and my friend Kathy, I will attempt to post one picture per day for a year starting August 1st 2007. Sometimes the pictures will be artistic, sometimes they will be things that were important to me on that day and other times they will just be pictures of things I thought were funny. I am sure a lot of poorly shot, poorly composed photos will be taken, but hopefully so will one or two great ones.

#198 Chapel


080214 002, originally uploaded by AXO - 365.

T had to have a minor procedure performed at St Lukes Hospital this morning. Despite it's recent purchase and upgrades, St Luke's 130 year history of serving San Francisco's poorest neighborhoods is still fairly evident as you walk around the utilitarian building. Then as you walk down one small corridor there’s this…..

The chapel was built in 1912 (after the whole hospital was leveled in the 1906 quake) and features this stunning stained glass window and a huge pipe organ that would put many larger churches to shame.
