400 years of loneliness Photo

Photographer’s Note

Behold the Church of Saviour in the Sands in Rostov the Great. It's built in year 1603, which makes this building unique. That's because in 1600-1613 Russia was in so-called "Messy Times", when long civil war, intervence of foreign armies, famine and other atrocities appeared, so nobody build anything.
***
Thus, this church is quite outstanding, and looking at it, standing on the edge of the wide space, I thought that this name will suit this photo good.

Great photo, and i think your frame matches your title very well, showing so much of the sky and lesser of the land. I think you would be a lot luckier if that big three hadn't been there.. i guess would improve the composition, but well, nothing you can do about that unless you chop it down i guess :) Also thanks for the good note.
