Close-up of domes and bell tower

Uploaded: February 06, 2015 | Entered: February 06, 2015 12:44:36

Description

The 22 Domed Transfiguration church has 5 concentric rings of domes and the 22nd major dome is positioned directly over the alter. No single capture can photograph all 22. This close up also includes the bell tower. All the shingles are constructed from Aspen a hearty wood that glistens in innumerable color depending on time of day and angle of the sun. Truly amazing.
