Church at Night

I know I post a lot of pictures of the Russian Orthodox Church on here but it is a part of my "place", and I find it riveting. It's just a block away and I walk by it a couple times a day on dog walks, or drive by it on the way to the Dutch Harbor side or the road to Summers Bay. Eagles love to perch on the crosses - if you look closely you may be able to see the white heads of the two that are perched in this photo.

Today the storm let up and we had a wonderful day of sunshine and temps in the 40's. Lots of snow is gone from the driving rain and the warm weather . . . . tonight we went to the Crab Pot Deli to celebrate 7 months living on the island. There has been a lot of boat traffic heading out this evening on the eve of the pollock season opener and the pot cod boats getting ready for opilio,

I love the light dusting of snow on the tree in front. So pretty!

No wonder you post a lot of pictures of the church, it's very dramatic! Nice composition and lighting!
