Rocky Mtn. Chapel

I recently visited the chapel at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs. It offered some pretty astounding architecture, capturing the majesty of the Rocky Mountains and the craftsmanship of aircraft into details like the shape of pews and windows, as well as its overall design. And boy oh boy, if you like angles and patterns as much as I do, it is hard to stop taking photographs.

The chapel offers catholic, Jewish, Buddhist and protestant worship. Also, it has a scientifically reproduced replica of the Shroud of Turin in the lobby. Fascinating.
