Interior Photos of Wise Temple & St Peter in Chains Cathedral plus more PDF Print E-mail
Monday, 14 January 2008

I was happy to see the weather worked out in my favor this past Saturday.  I spent the better half of the day walking the streets of Cincinnati, enjoying the mild weather and friendly pedestrians.  A few were interested in what I was taking photos of and others were happy to walk around me while I was focusing on a certain angle and I even ran into fellow blogger Bob Schwartz of http://5chw4r7z.blogspot.com and http://parkerflats.blogspot.com.  During the first part of the day I was exploring Plum Street when a friendly Cincinnati Police Officer gave me a few suggestions about possible photo opportunites.  Shortly after our conversation, I saw him disappear inside the Wise Temple (Plum Street Temple).  I quickly got excited that the door was unlocked because in almost five years of living here, I have never had any success gaining entrance to the Temple.  Shortly after he disappeared inside the Temple, I made my way there and was greeted by the Officer and a friendly worker.  They didn’t mind me taking interior photos and the worker even was helpful in showing me the staircase to the balcony.  While many that frequent the Temple probably take it for granted, I thought it was one of the best interiors in Cincinnati and was grateful to have seen it after all these years.  I am surprised they don’t offer daily tours of a Temple.  St. Peter in Chains Cathedral is no slouch either with lined Corinthian columns down to a beautiful wall of mosaic tiles.  Over all I was able to capture several interior shots of some of Cincinnati’s great buildings but I was unsuccessful in my attempt to re-photograph the interior of Dixie Terminal.  There is always another day for that.  Alas, you can view all the photos in one complete set here or you can view each photo gallery separate by clicking on the linked name.  * Wise Temple, St. Peter in Chains, Cincinnati Skyline Night, Cincinnati Buildings , Downtown *
