 * Reason:It's a spectacularly decorated hospital chapel featuring some moving details. Along the back of the chapel is the 'Teddy Bear Choir', teddy bears provided by families, and in the foreground is the 'prayer tree', featuring messages of hope for sick children.

 * Support - just exquisite. Wonderful. What are the toys for? You take them there and leave them or they rotate? Hafspajen (talk) 02:39, 6 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I guess you just leave them there. On the left, it asks for people who leave teddy bears to sign the register and put a tag on the bear so they know who placed it there and when. I guess eventually they will remove them to make space for new bears, but I don't know how formal it is. I think it might depend on why your child is in the hospital and how long they are there for. &#208;iliff    &#171;&#187;  (Talk)  03:46, 6 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Support - as usual, wonderful. Interesting that the image in the center of the dome is the same as this...--Godot13 (talk) 05:09, 6 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Interesting... It's thematic in Christianity. When I read that article mentioning St Mary Abchurch in London, I realised I had taken a photo of the reredos which also features the pelican feeding blood to its young. I've actually been meaning to go back to this church to photograph the dome. I'd tried once before in the summer when the other photos were taken, but because there are large windows in the dome (not my photo, just the existing photo in the article), there was too much glare and I wasn't happy with it. Revisiting this winter would likely make for darker windows and easier photography. &#208;iliff    &#171;&#187;  (Talk)  10:47, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Support Wow. Reading some of those tags on the tree makes for a difficult start to a Monday morning... Excellent picture. gaz hiley  10:51, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Support – photos of chapel/church interiors are really not my "thing" but this is a beautiful image and so poignant. What a shame the article doesn't do it justice; I've just seen a description of the chapel: it's like a " jewelled reliquary with fantastic Byzantine decorations" - this image portrays that. Apparently a mural on one wall shows Jesus surrounded by children with "Suffer the little Children to come unto me" beneath it. Diliff, you have made me cry with this!
