Today the Black and White Sunday theme is a religious building. You have until next Saturday to post something fitting. Leave me the links to your posts… I’ll be waiting….
To all those who celebrate, happy Easter!

I love the slant and the figure and, as always, the sharpness of the image. Hope relaxation has been happening for you.

I was appalled to hear the neighbours drilling walls on Easter morning and it put me in a vile mood. I’m relaxing now. Blessings to you, Meg.

Now THAT is some huge church. Eastern (Russian?) Orthodox? And in which country would that be? It’s magnificent. Black and white is brilliant for architecture.

It just shouts Italian. For a minute I thought it was going to be Venice but as I scrolled down on my phone I saw not. Love the priest to set the scene.
Have restful rest of the weekend Paula.

Yes, the angle really makes this special. Such an imposing image, and a great sense of time too, as if this photo had been taken several centuries ago. You’ve been time travelling, Paula, and didn’t tell us 🙂
