The yellow church stands bright against that clear blue sky. The golden domes catch the light just right.

Sarah Campbell That brickwork on the lower wall really stands out against the yellow. The way the sun hits those domes is perfect.
Χρήστος Βασιλείου The brick at the base contrasts nicely with the yellow, but it's those gold domes that steal the show.
Vesna Đorđević That yellow color with golden domes looks nice. I would love to see her live.
Gabriela Dumitrescu Who took this picture and where is the church? I want to see what it looks like up close.
Ilie Ionescu The church belongs to Saint Hierarch Nicolae, it can be seen well by that typical style. The picture is successful, the contrast with the blue sky comes out really well.
Daniela Popescu Well said, Elijah. The yellow color on the walls pops even more against that dark tin roof. The picture is clear, you can see every detail.
Emma Mitchell The yellow really pops next to that dark metal roof on the upper part. Saint Nicholas churches around here usually have that same sturdy brick base too.
Максим Иванов Yellow walls and a dark roof are a fiery contrast.
Κατερίνα Παπαδοπούλου The yellow is quite intense but the interesting thing is the old bricks at the base which show that the building has quite a few years on it.
Светлана Андреева The yellow walls stand out well, and the old bricks below are quite dark from age.
Serge Martin Yes, those old bricks downstairs have really taken on the patina of time. Here in Provence we have often seen this same ocher yellow on facades since the 17th century.
Десислава Костова I want to see it up close, especially those old bricks at the base.
Margaret Evans The old bricks at the base look even darker in that photo than I expected.
ლევან ჯავახიშვილი The dark metal roof above showed well, the way the sun reflected on its corners.
Екатерина Новикова Yes, the old bricks below have completely darkened. In St. Petersburg, in St. Nicholas Cathedral, we also have the same yellow color on the walls, only the domes are not gold, but green.
Михайло Литвин Such old brick foundations always keep their shape, even when the walls have long turned yellow from time. And the domes still catch the light first.
Полина Соловьёва Beautiful contrast of yellow with the dark roof. Where and when was this photograph taken?
Katherine Morris The old bricks at the base really hold up well. Is this Saint Nicholas open to visitors on weekdays, and what time does liturgy usually start there?
Anca Stan Yes, those old bricks at the base really stand out. Where and when did you take this picture?
Pierre Girard Yes, those old bricks at the base held up really well. Is St. Nicholas Church open to visitors on weekdays, and what time does the liturgy usually begin?
Dušan Stanković That yellow color holds up well even after so many years. I know that here in Banja Luka, a similar mortar is made with lime from the limestone quarry near Prijedor, so it does not fade for a long time.
