The Assumption Cathedral (1559 – 1585) Constructed by the order of Ivan the Terrible. Austere and monumental, it follows the forms of the Assumption Cathedral of Moscow Kremlin which was a symbol of the state power. The narrow high windows in two rows underline the impressively thick walls. The Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius is the most important Russian monastery and the spiritual center of the Russian Orthodox Church. The monastery is situated in the town of Sergiyev Posad, about 90 km to the north-east from Moscow by the road leading to Yaroslavl. The monastery was founded in 1345 by one of the most venerated Russian saints, Sergius of Radonezh, who built a wooden church in honour of the Holy Trinity at the Makovets Hill. Until the end of the 17th century, when young Peter I twice found refuge within monastery from his enemies, numerous structures had been constructed there. After the Russian Revolution of 1917, the Soviet government closed the lavra in 1920. Its buildings were assigned to different civic institutions or declared museums. In 1930, monastery bells, including the Tsar-Bell of 65 tons, were destroyed. Pavel Florensky and his followers could hardly prevent the authorities from stealing and selling sacristy collection. Following Joseph Stalin’s temporary tolerance of the church during World War II, the Lavra was returned to the Russian Orthodox Church in 1945. On April 16, 1946 divine service was renewed at the Assumption Cathedral. In 1993, the Trinity Lavra was inscribed on the UN World Heritage List.

I saw this girl in Patpong, the red light district of Bangkok at night. She was crocheting something red. / Americans call crochet ‘hook’, hence ‘hooker’. No idea about her job – another proof that it’s so easy to make assumptions. Think twice when you read the titles of photos…

Locally known as Señora de la Asunción. The church was built by the Spaniards is constructed of solid rocks or stones and it has paintings on the walls that are quite attractive. There is a tower with a bell, outside the church there is another tower and there is also a small well, not deep in front of the altar inside the church where the parishoners will draw their water. They consider the water to be holy because it is claimed that it can cure illnesses. It was surprisingly discovered that though the area is surrounded by the ocean, but the water from the well is not very salty and is considered potable. Dauis Bohol, Philippines

Outside of my church on the odd weekends after 5:00 pm mass, there can be anywhere from 500 to 1000 starlings that fly around in two or three flocks until they find some trees to populate. I managed to grab a few shots after church tonight as they made their rounds in the sky, this being one of them. I’m still unsure about posting this image, so let me know what you hoenstly think – good or bad. I do want to keep my profile top notch =)

Assumption Church is quite the gem. Located in my city, it is the oldest church in Canada west of Montreal. At the moment, the church is at threat of being closed down because it is in need of roughly nine million dollars in structural repairs, which for the most part means actually the brick work around the entire building, and a few old wooden beams that are deteriorating from water damage. The Diosece of London, whom we fall under, would rather see the building fall than hand over the money, it seems, as they refuse to lend us the cash and have made decisions in regards to the estimates on the building and the chosen contractors that seem like some sort of sabotage in the attempt to keep it open. This year will most likely be a very important year in regards to the future of this three hungdred odd some year old parish. This photo is of the sanctuary on the night of th Easter Vigil this year.

Probably the most photographed part of Slovenia. Lake Bled with its island and church are famous for their fairy-tale beauty. The present Church of the Assumption was built in the 17th century and the vicarage a hundred years later. But there are vestiges that date much earlier. That day we wanted to walk round this natural lake, a leisurely walk of some 6 hours. It was beautiful scenes all the way. I must have taken more than 200 photos on that hike alone. / . / Nikon D70 / Nikkor 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5G / Aperture: f/11.0 / Shutter: 1/125 sec / Focal Length: 28mm / ISO: 200 / . /

The Dormition All stock from sxc.hu, purchased from stockexpert and dreamstime The Feast of the Dormition or Falling Asleep of the Theotokos commemorates the death, resurrection, and glorification of Christ’s mother. “Because I feel that,in the Heavens above, / The angels ,whispering to one another, / Can find,among their burning terms of love, / None so devotional as that of “MOTHER”, / Therefore by that dear name I long have called you- / You who are more than mother unto me, / And fill my heart of hearts,where Death installed you…......”(Edgar Poe)

This is a photo of me. Me, wearing a suit and tie. Me, wearing a certain hairstyle. Me, with a certain style of facial hair. / My question to you: / Do you discriminate based on a person’s appearance? / Do you consider yourself to be prejudiced? / If I passed you on the street looking like this, would you have negative feelings toward me? / Would you embrace me as one of your own, assuming that I am a “NeoNazi” or some such? / . / . / . / Just something to think about.

What a space. Cathedral of Saint Mary of the Assumption is located in San Francisco and is quite deceiving at first. You enter the space at a very low level scale and then your automatically pulled into this monumental volume. You cant help but stare 90 degrees straight up for about 5 minutes straight. The reason why I took a panorama (5 stitch) is for people to comprehend the scale from ground floor – up.

This Barogue church on the only true island in Slovenia dates from the 17th century. It contains some fresco fragments from the 14th century, a large gold altar and, under the floor of the nave, part of the pre-Romanesque chapel, the only one in Slovenia
