The weather has been miserable, for the past 3-4 days, raining and being cold.
So, I decided to put on a more cheerful picture to remind myself of the beutiful blue skies, about a month ago.
The belltower is of a Greek church in Piraeus.

Take a Gothic bell tower (1452), gut it, fill it with a round glass sided elevator surrounded by a concrete and metal staircase (1994).....and It will offer access to a great viewing experience. Things inside the tower did go a little visually entropic, though in a graphically pleasing way ;-)
Shot in the Eusebius church. The church was extensively damaged during the Second World War following Operation Market Garden in 1944 and was renovated/built (1946-1962.
Its monumental and narrative gate is here.
This is number 25 of Churches.

At the top of the hill is the castle of Skopelos.
The first fortification dates back to antiquity when the settlement was called Peparithos.
The Byzantines then built a wall following this fortification, and the last repair seems to have been done by the Venetians in the 13th century AD.
As in many Greek islands, the castle is an integral part of the traditional preserved settlement of Chora, part of which is shown in the photograph and includes the Church of the Annunciation.

Constructed by members of the Lecompton, Kansas United Brethren Church known as the “Radicals”. Members opposed removing a ban against membership in the Odd Fellows, Masons, and similar secret societies and defected from the main United Brethren Church in 1899. The building made of locally quarried limestone opened in 1906 as a Radical United Brethren Church. It was constructed on the footprint of an older wood church that had burned down. The church was visited by Bishop Milton Wright, the father of Wilbur and Orville Wright. He ordained a few Radical United Brethren ministers there after that group split from the United Brethren with which Lane University was associated. The church members disbanded in the 1920s. The defunct church was purchased by the city in 1932 after their offices in the Council Building were destroyed by fire. The building was placed on the Kansas Register of Historic Places in 2016. Today it is used as the Lecompton community building.
Happy wednesday.

Reschensee or Lake Reschen is an artificial lake in the western portion of South Tyrol, Italy.
With its capacity of 120 million cubic metres (97,000 ac·ft) it is the largest lake in the province. Its surface area of 6.6 km² makes it also the largest lake above 1,000 m in the Alps.[1] It is fed by the Adige, Rojenbach and Karlinbach and drained by the Adige.
The lake is famous for the steeple of a submerged 14th-century church; when the water freezes, this can be reached on foot. A legend says that during winter one can still hear church bells ring. In reality the bells were removed from the tower on July 18, 1950, a week before the demolition of the church nave and the creation of the lake.
The ancient village of Quiliano, in a green valley of the Ligurian Apennines not far from the sea, has origins dating back to Roman times. The territory is covered by dense forests of oak and chestnut trees

The medieval village of El Castell de Guadalest (known more simply as Guadalest) was fortified by the Moors in the 11th and 12th centuries.
However, it's most famous landmark, the belltower, was built between 1953 and 1963.
The few remains of the Moors' Alcozaiba castle can be seen behind the belltower.
