Early Spring Photo

Photographer’s Note

So this is a shot of church of St Dmitry Solunsky in Old Ladoga Fortress. Church made in year 1612-1613.
Last couple of days temperature was + 6 C, so I bet all this snow that still can be seen on the photo is gone.

Hallo from Germany!
What a touching little church - and obviously well preserved. This blockhouse construction is very uncommon for a church, but I like it very much. Thank you for showing this one!
Greetings from very very stormy Germany!

Hello Mr Owl,
This is a real gem, very rare to see a church of this design still existing!
The rough timber walls give a strong impact, and I notice not much was done to decorate the exterior...
It is a well composed presentation, with the building surrounded by the naked trees!
Greetings,
