OL' BLUE

Your classic, simple Orthodox church in a village ....somewhere between Constanta and Cernavoda. I particularly like the blue highlights.

OUT OF CHARACTER



Out of character because most of these are Romanian Orthodox churches ...you know, when in Rome and all! This tower is the turret of a Muslim mosque in Tulcea, taken from a boat in the Danube.

B-T-W... always, thery are strictly in Romania. I'm a purist about that. Happens to be a greater Turkish influence in these parts.

RIVERSIDE REVERENCE

This is a small chapel sitting on the banks of the Danube River outside Braila. There is a car ferry that crosses here ....any correlation? We survived the trip to take the photo.
