Though Marian towers were dedicated earlier, it was open to public only a few weeks ago. They charged a nominal ticket fee for this awe inspiring experience of climbing the pier at Lady of Ransom church.
Top of the dome on a over cast afternoon.
Meenakshi Amma and the mother. Classic attachment.
The grill domes at the top for safety. It indeed felt safe even at such height. Even me, who has a fear of height felt safe at top. I should admit I was more afraid climbing the stairs than at the top.
Views, a generation ago, could not have possibly imagined even in their wildest dreams. A view of the church and the neighborhood from such a height!!!
The curator, sometimes handwork go painfully unnoticed. But some just smile and keep it going.
The cameras to monitor, these kind of control devices have become a need as the brotherhood sometimes turn into a convenient cover for wrongful indulgence.
