Mystic

In the corner of my eye this grabed my attention:

• Is it the new against the old? 
• The horizontal with the vertical? 
• A prayer shot to heaven? 
• The first migration shuttle leaving earth to a new planet to inhabet somewhere in the universe? 
• Wite agains earth colors... 

Saint Peter

A friend of mine has a big statue of Saint Peter in his house of extrordinary quality. 

I have to share it :)

Three angels and six wings... :)

Historic paintings

I have visitied the church of St Anthony of Padua last friday night. It was open church evening. Inside there were some very beautifull paintings of the 'stages'? It appeared they came from a demolished church (the amount of demolished churches is imense and is still going on) The paintings lately have been restored for 30.000 euro. They are created by a local painter from Utrecht.


The full painting.

Exhibition Macedonian (religious) art

This sunday I have been to an exhibition on Macedonian art. It was very beautiful!

Lightning Candle

I have been to Estonia last weekend, to the capital Tallinn. Very interesting historical place. Close to Russia as well, St. Petersburg is not so far away. I visited some Orthodox Churches; I find the temples fascinating, but I can't really follow/ understand the experience orthodox believers have.
This was in a small church where everybody was getting ready for the sermon. Which includes lightning a candle in front of all present icons.
