Church Photos
« on: October 22, 2010, 09:28:48 PM »
I've put together a couple of sets I thought might be of interest with some pictures I've taken or gathered and put on my flickr page.

The first is of my own parish and the set is here - http://www.flickr.com/photos/24557771@N02/sets/72157625076687335/

The second are public domain images I've found on the Library of Congress and those are here - http://www.flickr.com/photos/24557771@N02/sets/72157625061582483/

I would also be interested to see photos anyone has posted of their parishes.

Really! What jurisdiction are you? I haven't ever seen an Orthodox Bishop dress akin to a Roman Catholic, much less beardless. This is interesting.

That's also true. But I'm talking about a parish made up of mostly old or jobless people, many of them Gypsies.

Carpatho-Russian, which is a misnomer because the founders were Rusyns.  The diocese was Greek Catholic until the 30's.  Here is a parish of the diocese with a nice picture of the sanctuary http://www.saintmichaels.info/

augustin717, again an interesting picture!  What is the Romanian word for what I would call the khorugv/banner with the picture of the Theotokos.  I have not seen another of that style.

It differs from region to region: inside the Carpathian arch is mostly "prapor(e)/prapur(e)", outside of the Carpathian arch is "steag" ("flag").

That's just because this one is a somehow naive, home-made one.

My parish is St. George Greek Orthodox Church, New Port Richey, Florida.   :)




The icons from the interior of the dome:

St. Matthew


St. Mark


St. Luke


St. John


Christ Pantokrator


I believe I took this at the end of the liturgy:


If you sit facing the front, this would be an interior view of the left-side windows.

(a bit old, but a great view)

(a truly blessed moment, just after my godmother's baptism)

sorry for the vanity, but this is of me receiving absolution.  it was as moment I'll never forget, and it also has a great wider view of our beautiful temple.

I also want to point out that our parish was received from Byzantine Catholicism into Orthodoxy by my patron Saint, Tikhon of Moscow.

omg, I remember that temple!  I remember passing it years ago (long before I became a catechumen) when I would get off 980 to go to my office in Oakland.  I knew it was one of "those" Orthodox churches because of the Greek lettering above the columns.  I always wanted to stop and peer inside, but, alas, I never did.  It was very impressive.

I like this photo of a Russian church.  Six chalices on the Holy Table are an encouraging sight.

Holy Trinity Serbian Orthodox, in Butte, MT. (How does a town called "Butte" get such a lovely church?)

All of these are very beautiful. It just boggles my mind, the work that must have gone into them.  :)  :angel:
