Chevry Church Blaze

May 11, 2012

Last Sunday morning the church in the small town of Chevry burned. I noticed on Monday morning on the way home from work that something was different about the bell tower. Today I finally got to go and investigate.

Here is a very short local news article: machine translation / original.

I had to be ready to get this picture, I took it from the train on the way back to Geneva. I had spotted this scene last fall on the same train ride back from a conference, but that time I didn't know it was coming. It's best I can do with the window glare and such. I know your not supposed to take "good" pictures from moving vehicles, but I think the view is kind of unique from this spot, and the only way I would get it otherwise is to stand on the train tracks, and this is a pretty busy rail line, about to head under the Simplon pass. What I'm trying to say is that this is probably the best I'm going to get.
