Photographer's Note
A rustic looking old church I spotted in Tiraspol. This is around the back. The front entrance has a more formal stone wall. I was able to find the name of this church quite quickly. It's located in Strada Lunaciarski. There are about 2,500 adherents to this sect in Moldova. More information here.

Hello Chris,
The rather singular architecture of the church makes a fascinating contrast with the nondescript apartment block in the background. I like the lights and colour contrasts. The repeating fence posts add a touch of graphism. Very good sharpness.

Hello Chris,
Another perfect TE entry in your gallery. This time from Moldova.
Perfect pov and ligth as well as sherpness.
Also here the same problem like all over the world : old and beatiful objects of cultural heritage in the shadow of modern buildings.
The green fence adds a fine note to this compo.
TFS and best regards

Hello Chris,
This is an unusual looking church but full of rustic charm. The green shades in the church and fence are very nice. A super view the trees.
Kind Regards, Ann

Hello Chris,
I'm sure you made the right choice about which aspect to photograph, the different shades of green on the church and the matching fence, make a very attractive shot, nicely angled for the sense of perspective.
My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Bonjour Chris,
Les arbres cadrent bien l'église. La prise de vue permet de voir les détails de la vieille église. La lumière met en valeur la beauté des couleurs. Bonne journée.

Hello Chris
Great view of the old church with the domes and colours resembling a mosque. Excellent rendition of colours and well managed light. Thanks for sharing and have a great day!

Hello Chris,
The church is still nicely seen through the branches of the trees. I really like the green tones of the doors, roof and domes a lot. Also the fence in the foreground adds nicely to the many shades of green. The contrast with the deep blue sky is perfect.

Hi Chris,
A nice architecture for this church, well taken, good colors, perfect with such a light. Ideal season to take this view with winter without leaves on these trees in the FG, tfs.

Hello Chris, Charming old church in Tiraspol. I like the different green colours. Nice small domes. I will not go to Tiraspol in my Moldova trip.

Hello Chris,
I thought the "Old believers church" in Tiraspol would be the local HQ of the Soviet Union Communist Party. But this church looks so much nicer than any party HQ. The good effect of the photo is partly due to the fantastic light, but I really like the many green tones of the wooden fence, the entrance door, walls, windows, roof and domes. They all look slightly different.
Best regards,
Gert

Ciao Chris
anche se gli alberi spogli non sono belli da vedere, in questo caso mi fa piacere che lo siano, perché in questo modo posso vedere la bella architettura.
Saluti

Hello Chris, that Orthodox church looks a recent building. The wall and the fence have been freshly painted. Appealing green and blue hues. All the trees planted in the church garden have lost their leaves in winter. Magnificent blue sky
