First architecture post...

I've been dabbling in a few different forums, and had the time (and beautiful weather) to photograph this church the other day. It was built in 1803 and has had minimal renovations done over the years. I'd really like some C&C on this shot, as I love it. I went for the crop and everything, what I'd like critiqued is the lighting, especially. Is the building too dark? If so, how can I keep the sky as beautifully colored while properly exposing the building, both the next time I shoot like this and/or in PS. The rest of the shots are on my site, under "Bindnagle Church."

Thanks in advance!

the building is bit dark, maybe next time take multiple exposures, one with the building lit and the other with the sky properly exposed, then merge with photoshop or photomax, but still a good picture

How do you go about merging them so that they don't look so dumb? I actually did try that one time, and it made things so....photoshopped. lol.

pretty cool pic. In my opinion, correct color doesnt necessary make a good photo.
