St Francis Xavier Cathedral

I have very little information on this Cathedral but sure is a good subject to photograph and this is my first try on HDR Photography, so let me know what you think.

The first church was built in 1851 and the site on which it was built was brought from a French Catholic and a Widow of English Commander for the sum of Rs 1,000/- after about 50 years the cross from the tower of the old church fell and it was considered an outward sign to build a new church. The construction of this current church began in 1911 and was opened on May 26th 1932


Was lucky enough to take a few pictures of the interiors too... not many people were around when i visited.
