Houses of Worship is Alicia Miranda's photographic tribute to the religious architecture in Macon Georgia. It includes notable historic churches and synagogues dating from the late 18th century to through early 19th century. Close-ups of some of the structures reveal the work of talented artisans and beautiful architectural detailing.
