Glockentürme.. steeples

The photo challenge by Nova (link), who lives in Tenerife, was "steeples" ..
After some searching among old photographs I found these...
I am not so much into photographing churches, but here they are:


From the island Mykonos








From Mani, the southern and middle peninsula of Peloponnese.

Von Mani, die suedliche und mittlere Halbinsel der Peloponnese.


Das Thema  zum Fotografieren  von Nova (link), die auf Teneriffa lebt,  war "Glockentuerme"..
Nach einigem Suchen zwischen alten Fotografien habe ich diese gefunden.
Nicht sehr viele, da ich eigentlich kaum Kirchen fotografiere..

  4. Wow, the steeples are beautiful Monika! I love that they're made of stone, and not a single cloud in the sky in any of your photos, that's just amazing. What are your best months, the warmest months, where you live? Who knows where my next trip might take me, it won't happen for a while, but when it does I want to have done my research.

    Have a wonderful week!

  10. You have an interesting variety in architectural styles, building materials and, perhaps, religious beliefs collected here, Monika. Your photographs make me want to explore these structures and learn their history and their secrets.

    Wonderful work.
