When arriving in Oostende and leaving the railway station, Saint Peter and Paul's church is one of the first monument you see. This neo-gothic church, built in 1904-1905, was designed by architect Delacenserie. Inside the church is the mausoleum for Belgium's first queen Louise-Marie who died in Oostende in 1850.
The stained-glass windows show the portraits of different Belgian Kings. And it's beautiful when the sun shines on it |

Astonishing architecture John, you have captured it very well. Looks like a very dominating building, not to mention spiritual. Great view of daily life too, the central composition works well here. Perhaps add a splash of saturation to bring out a deeper blue in the sky, and maybe boost the aperture setting a bit higher to get greater focus on the church - although it does seem quite sharp as it is. Well done.
TFS,
Scott.
