Drvena kapela pored jezera u ranu zoru. Svetlo je tako tiho da čovek poželi da samo sedne i ćuti.

Elizabeth Taylor That wooden chapel looks like it’s been there at least a couple hundred years. The simple log walls and steep roof hold up nicely.
Максим Воробьёв Yes, such log chapels stand strong. In those parts, in Serbia, larch is often used; it hardly rots even near water.
Katherine Morris The light hitting the side of that steep roof makes the wood look almost silver. Nice shot.
Maria Ciobanu Yes, the wood looks solid. The chapel is dedicated to St. Elijah, liturgy is often served right there next to the lake.
Роман Богданов The wood on the walls has already darkened with age; it is clear that the logs were cut by hand, without a saw. It will definitely last for two hundred years.
Xenia Walker The way the first light catches the edge of those hand-hewn logs on the side wall makes every notch stand out. Nice capture.
Петя Христова The wood really looks solidly put together and the roof is just steep enough to keep snow out. Nice picture.
Билјана Николовска Yes, Maria said well, at Saint Ilia they often serve liturgy right here.
George Wright That wooden chapel by the lake at dawn looks worth the drive. I'd like to see it in person one day.
Karolina Nowak That chapel looks nice in the morning. I would love to see her live one day.
Наталья Соколова Yes, the logs were clearly chopped with an axe, the joints are uneven, but they fit tightly. For a hundred and fifty years, no less, such a building will stand.
Juliette Girard The chapel is dedicated to Saint Elijah, as Maria said. The edges of the roof are well cut, we can see that water should not stagnate there too much. I like this kind of simple construction.
Марина Иванова Yes, the logs were chopped with an axe, as can be seen from the uneven joints. The chapel is dedicated to the prophet Elijah, which is why services there are often held near the water.
