Looks nice.
If you could get back when the sun is almost racking across the church front at a shallow angle, all the texture in the brick work will be an outstanding photo. My experience at this tells me there is about a 15 minute window when this happens.
It is hard to do as you need to not have other commitments and have good weather.
The sun needs to be directly to the left or right to make this texture work. If the building is facing north, the sun rises and sets maximun north on June 21. Therefore you need to be there about 1/2 hour after sun up or the sun goes too far south.
If it faces west or east, around noon will work.
Atchitectural photography is harder than it appears and the casual viewer just looks at it and says pretty picture. You get no respect.

It looks a bit soft to me. Not sure if it has anything to do with resize.

Thanks Ronald.
I'm not sure how the sun would work here... the building faces almost directly south, but is in the middle of a town. Near sunrise or sunset, it would all be in shadow. Later in the day, the sun might be too far behind it, but later morning might work... which from a scheduling standpoint, could prove challenging for me
-- I'm in that area around 9 a lot of mornings, so I'll have to take a look.
Fbf - really? Though down by the doors it isn't as sharp as it could be, overall I didn't want to sharpen it any further for fear it would be too much. Now here on my MacBook Air laptop it looks fine, and on my regular 24" Apple Cinema it looks SHARP. Interesting...

Why are the edges of the trees dark?
