Photographer’s Note
Well here is a church of St Paraskeva on Yaroslav's Court in Novgorod. It's true antiquity, built in year 1207 by merchants who had business with Hanzeatic League and thus was West-oriented. Thus the design of this small church is quite strange and unusual for Orthodox ones (lot of classic ones in my gallery, by the way).
Actually, this church is quite ridiculous. But it's really very old, after all.

Hello Uhu,
You indeed have some spectacular shots of Orthodox churches, but I rather like this one, one the bulging semicircular side. I wonder if it is symmetric, featuring a similar sharp on the other side? By subdued light it is a compelling architectural shot.
Warm regards,
Bulent

Good morning Uhu,
very nice composition with this little but cute church of St Paraskeva.The oldness and the sharpness are impressive as the light that spread in the whole capture.Well done.
Regards,Danos
