"St. Patrick's Cathedral"

"Of all the fabulous places to see and visit in a city as grand as
New York City, my favorite place hands down is St. Patrick's
Cathedral located on 5th Avenue between 50th and 51st streets.
Every time I visit NYC, it is always a must-see.

It is one of NYC's oldest churches, with construction beginning in
1858 and the work completed in 1879. The church was declared
a National Historic Landmark in 1976. It served as the location
for several papal masses (including the last two popes), and also
hosted several funerals including Babe Ruth, Robert F. Kennedy,
Vince Lombardi, and Joe DiMaggio.

I took 33 images (employing a monopod) of this magnificent
church early on a Thursday morning and stitched them
together using Photoshop."  --Nick Sadowski
