#FotoVorschlag - Kirchen und Glocken

Photo theme - churches and bells

I could probably post a hundred photos for this theme.

This is Our Lady of the Rocks in the Bay of Kotor, Montenegro. Accessible only by boat, it's an artificial island partly created by sinking rock-laden vessels, a continuation of a tradition of laying rocks here after successful voyages.

#Photography #Travel #Kotor #Montenegro #Church #Landscape

We're close to an islet in a calm bay with a low mountain range framing it in the distance. The islet has a dock built into its side and on the flat, paved surface there is a large church with a tower, a domed main building, and smaller buildings attached to the sides. The stone of the island and its buildings, as well as that of the mountain landscape beyond is pale, and the area feels very dry. There are a few wispy clouds in the sky above the lightly-jagged ridge of land in the background but it otherwise feels quiet and hot here, despite being on the water. The church tower and the dome are copper, turned blue-green with age. The tiled roofs of the smaller buildings are red and there's a very European or Mediterranean feel to the scene.
