Saint Bartholomew's Church.

Small “office” in narthex.

I asked the woman behind the desk (only partly visible) if it was OK to take pictures. Even before I asked my question after I said hi to get her attention, she already beamed me a very nice smile. (You have to remember this is New York -- people don't ordinarily smile like that.) When I asked my question she said, “Yes, thank you for asking!” Needless to say, I felt so elated. I'll have to remember that -- that sometimes a smile does wonders.
