- Info Ceiling of Binondo Church, Manila, Philippines. The Roman Catholic church was founded by Dominican priests in 1596 to serve their Chinese converts to Christianity. The original building was destroyed in 1762 by British bombardment. A new granite church was completed on the same site in 1852 however it was greatly damaged during the Second World War, with only the western façade and the octagonal belfry surviving. c/u/n by Poco a poco (talk) 20:57, 15 October 2023 (UTC)

- Support Thank you – when you nominated the interior view, I asked myself how this painted ceiling looks, and this photo is an excellent answer. --Aristeas (talk) 06:06, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

- Question Is that reddish-orange and purple CA at the boundary of the stained glass at the top of the picture frame, or were those colors of light there? Otherwise, I would support this fine depiction of a church ceiling with particularly expressive murals. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:28, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
- Ikan Kekek: Yes, there was some CA, I removed it. Thank you. Poco a poco (talk) 15:43, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
- Support It might be lessened, rather than removed, but I'll leave that to your judgment. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:27, 17 October 2023 (UTC)

- Support This photograph offers a stunning view of an intricately detailed religious mural segmented by architectural dividers, providing the viewer with a layered visual journey. Beginning with the beautifully crafted stained glass at the top, the colors and luminosity emanate a sense of divine presence. The murals themselves are replete with rich colors, detailed brushwork, and powerful religious narratives, giving viewers a sense of the profound spiritual significance. The figures in the mural, with their expressive poses and interactions, effectively convey the poignant moments from religious stories. The framing of the photo is symmetrical, ensuring that each layer of the mural receives its due attention. The gentle pastel colors of the walls contrast with the vividness of the murals, allowing the artistry to take center stage. However, the slight presence of cracks and wear on the architectural elements adds a touch of historic authenticity, reminding the viewer of the passage of time and the enduring nature of faith --Wilfredor (talk) 23:12, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
