Exposition in the old church

"Too dark to be of any use, but the altar was beautifully decorated thanks to the McGurk sisters."
I have lightened these a bit but unfortunately that introduces a fair bit of noise. Still there's a bit more visible than in the originals.

"Mystery Crucifix (moved to new church)"
"Lady Altar (used for Mass during Exposition)"

"Sacred Heart Altar"
