And can you see how many dust specks there are in this pic? Time to clean the camera sensor...
There is something about simplistic photos that just captures my heart. Perhaps it is just the reminder that sometimes in "quiet" or simplistic there is a strength, one that never needs to be explained .. it is just there. . Regardless I just love it .. :). Hope any of that makes sense.
Photo was taken from:
MOTORHEADZ CAFE / Route66, High Level (111, 128, 22)

Well, and after the creation of the island, people came to it and started building houses and villages with their churches.
The sea was their friend, but at the same time their enemy because on the one hand they provided a source of income through fishing, but on the other hand the sea had its terrible quirks and she could rage like a raging rage and devourded houses, villages in short everything what got in her way and therefore also people.
And in order to avoid the seething desolation of the sea, dikes were always built higher, higher and higher, so that you no longer see the villages from the sea side, except for a small part of the church tower........
This is the church of Nesseby. Nesseby is a small town in the far northeast of Norway. We travled there last January (2020) coming from the finnish border and passing this small town with the church just besides the fjord. That day we had no time to drive to the church but we swear to stop there when leaving the area of Varanger.
When we left the area of Varanger we started early in the morning and when we arrived at Nesseby it was completely dark (it was the arctic night) So I used my Tripod to shoot this photo and tried several adjustments. The only light was this from the Church itself. It was cold, and snow started to fall like hell and we were in a hurry to leave because we wanted to go to the northcape this day and this are several hundreds of kilometer within new snow.

The Gothic chancel with a stellar vault and a rood arch has remained from the old 15th century church. It is the chapel of the new church dedicated to St. Jadwiga and St. James the Apostle.

Pierwszy kościół w Lusowie w tym miejscu wybudowano w 1244 roku. Jak podają najdawniejsze dokumenty był to drewniany kościół. Wydarzeniem historycznym było utworzenie w Lusowie parafii w dniu 15 lipca 1288 roku. Z biegiem lat drewniany kościół uległ zniszczeniu. Nową świątynię konsekrowano w 1499 roku. Ulegała ona kilkakrotnym renowacjom. Obecny wygląd kościoła pochodzi z roku 1913 - 1916. Ze starego XV wiecznego kościoła pozostało gotyckie prezbiterium z gwiaździstym sklepieniem i łukiem tęczowym. Stanowi ono kaplicę nowej świątyni pod wezwaniem św. Jadwigi i św. Jakuba Apostoła.
