Artist's Description
For some reason this tiny church in Yuma, Arizona really intrigues me. I first heard about it after reading Roadside America's list of small churches in the US. MSNBC also has an article online about roadside churchs that mentions the Yuma one.
A sign outside the church reads "Stop, Rest, Worship." It's located on Highway 95, some ten miles north of Yuma.

About Robert Bales
I am a retired teacher, coach, and athletic director. While my wife, Judy, and I were teaching she had a photo studio, and I had a dark room where I did black and white and color.

I have always used Cannon cameras and now I am using the 7D for most of the...
