Here's a photo of Shove Memorial Chapel on the Colorado College campus, taken on the afternoon of May 27th from Cascade Avenue. Shove (rhymes with cove) was built during the throes of the Great Depression, in 1931, and remains one of the most beautiful structures in our city. It's a very popular place to get married, I suspect in part because there's a certain "I spent a lot of money to tie the knot here" kind of cachet to it. It's problematic for inexperienced photographers because it's so everlovin' dark in there, so shooting a wedding in Shove Chapel is not for the faint of heart! Frankly I love the outside of it more, it's a beautiful church and a real architectural gem. I'll take a closer picture of it one of these days and post it here.
