Righteous Joachim and Anna · Ven. Joseph of Volotsk
The sun's rays pass through the clouds and fall on the cathedral. It gives a quiet sense of peace.

Xenia Campbell That's the cathedral in Thessaloniki isn't it. The sun always hits those domes just right in late afternoon because of how the hills sit behind it.
Juliana Wilson The light catches the red brick on the lower walls really nicely there. Makes the whole building stand out against the clouds.
ალექსანდრე დოლიძე Good photo. Do you know when the service is on Saturday evening and if they accept visitors during the week?
Πέτρος Λαμπρόπουλος Good photo. Do you know if the church is open for visitors on weekdays after 5pm?
Виктор Киселёв Nice shot, the domes are beautifully lit.
Milica Živković The light falls right on the bricks as Juliana says, the contrast is nice.
თეა ლომიძე The photo clearly shows the red brick left from the old basilica. I know that on Saturday evening the service starts at 6.
Katherine Brown The red brick really does pop in that light. I think they still ring the bells by hand for the Saturday vespers there, the old-fashioned way.
Xenia Parker The red brick really stands out in that shot. I'd like to see it in person one afternoon.
Владо Ристески The light falls directly on the dome and makes the tiles shine. I hadn't noticed it before.
Grace Turner The red brick really stands out against the clouds in that shot. Do you remember what time of day you took it?
Иван Атанасов The red τούβλο στο φως looks even more saturated than live. When exactly did he shoot her, was it in the afternoon?
