When I was a teenager one of my favorite poets was Susan Polis Schutz. Her poem called, "Come Into the Mountains Dear Friend", popped into my head recently when I was hiking in the area where this photo was taken. Thought I'd share it here: Come into the mountains, dear friend.
Leave society and take no one with you but your true self. Get close to nature, your everyday games will be insignificant. Notice the clouds spontaneously forming patterns, and try to do that with your life. Oh so very nostalgic. I've always dreamed of living near the mountains and so with the theme of "All I Want Is..." a capture of the mountains totally came to mind. This shot is actually taken from the parking lot of the grocery store closest to our house and features both Thimble and Finger Peak in the Santa Catalina Mountains. Love living nestled in the foothills of these beautiful mountains.
A special magnolia blossom, garnished with an approaching pollinator. Apologies to all you bug aficionados if my post processing failed to do justice to the bee; my knowledge of insects is insignificantly different from zero. And I get no credit for capturing the bee; another shot three minutes later shows no insects, and three minutes after that less interesting (to me) insects.
We explored the "Three Sisters" in the Goblin Valley State Park and I found that they must have been taller in the past. You can see their previous heads on the ground, chopped off by the merciless forces of erosion.
More heads are still up there and wind, rain, freeze cycles and earth's rumbles will continue their work until only an insignificant clump is left.
You can see melted humps of earth all around and wonder what fantastical forms they once had.
It was in the wilds, where the A861 goes into a mini-Glencoe mountain pass. I spotted it just after the turning onto the B8043, before we came to Strontian, a prominent tree that sprouted from behind a room sized boulder., with mountains in the background (and powerlines inconveniently across the skyline).
But there was no light and I decided to make the not insignificant journey back to it in the morning.....only 20 miles but that seems to take a while up there.
There was no light when I got there the second time either, and it started to spit with rain too, but I got the impression this tree and rock had been spotted by many other togs too, for there was a trodden way through the bracken and hillgrass towards it.
I didn't mind too much that I couldn't make anything of it. I'm going to be living up that way soon and will have to pass it every time we go shopping in the future. I'll get it looking spectacular one day. But in the meantime I've been fartnarkling in LR sliding a bit here and there, for effect.
#AB_FAV_SUMMER_to_AUTUM_ 🍄🍁🍂
In my garden, this is the only plant I do not know the name of!
I bought it on the market, years ago, it had a lovely photo of how it would become, no name though... shows again how deceptive photos can be, LOL!
Anyway, it is not very big, very hardy, with insignificant small leaves, in late Spring... it grows insignificant little white flowers, mostly hidden under the leaves, in Summer it is ... just there?
Then comes Autumn, and the leaves turn on all the colours of the rainbow, for a few short weeks it becomes an ABSOLUTE focal point of attraction in the garden... pure GLORY... then it's gone again... till next year!
I thought I'd share this with you.
THANK you for ALL your comments and visits, so appreciated.
Have a wonderful day, filled with love and beauty, M, (*_*)

Switching now from little critters to lovely plants and flowers in the neighborhood.
I walked by a half-barrel oak planter full of these colorful Coleus plants and, of course, I had to capture their beauty.
Native to tropical environments in Southeast Asia, they are annuals here in our Wisconsin climate. While they do have insignificant, tiny flowers, it is their leaves that really shine and botanists have produced 1,500 colorful varieties that are now available at the greenhouses.
Normally lovers of shade, some varieties now do quite well in very sunny areas.
Enjoy the color explosion :)
Uttar Pradesh - Varanasi - Manikarnika Ghat - Cremation place
IND4304.1.F
Many thanks for your visits, comments, faves and invitations.
Take care and stay healthy!
Manikarnika Ghat is one of the holiest cremation grounds among the sacred riverfronts (ghats) alongside the river Ganga.
It is one of the oldest ghats in Varanasi. The Manikarnika Ghat is mentioned in a Gupta inscription of 5th century.
In Hinduism, death is considered as a gateway to another life marked by the results of one's karma. It is believed that a dead human's soul attains moksha and hence breaks the cycle of rebirth when cremated here. Thus, scores of the elderly across the whole country seek to walk up to its edges and spend their last days absorbing the charisma of the ghat, making death painless and insignificant to be pondered upon.
Glücksburg Castle in the middle of its moat, Glücksburg, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany
Some background information:
Glücksburg Castle is considered one of the most important Renaissance castles in Northern Europe. The moated castle is located in the town of Glücksburg on the Firth of Flensburg Fjord and is one of the best-known sights in the German state of Schleswig-Holstein. With ist more than 6,300 residents, Glücksburg is a little town to the northeast of the city of Flensburg. Denmark lies right opposite of Glücksburg on the northern shore of the firth in a linear distance of just six kilometres (3.7 miles) to the town centre.
The building stands on a 2.5-meter-high granite base and rises directly out of the water. The castle is made of white plastered brick, which was largely removed and reused from the demolished monastery, which was located there before. The base area is a square with an edge length of almost 30 meters, consisting of three individual houses, each with its own floor plan and roof. While the middle house accommodated the large halls and the vestibule, the two side houses were fitted with the living rooms. The palace chapel, with its east-facing altar wall, is the only room that was placed across the overall floor plan and is located in the east and middle house at the same time.
In the four corners of Glücksburg Castle are four octagonal towers, each seven meters in diameter. The courtyard side of the castle is also preceded by two bay-like stair towers, which form the only connection between the upper floors. In total, the castle includes two halls, the vestibule, the castle chapel, twelve middle rooms, twelve tower rooms and eleven corner rooms. The total living space of the building is around 3,000 square metres (32,290 square feet.).
The history of today's castle grounds begins in Schleswig in 1192, when the double monastery of St. Michael auf dem Berge was dissolved. The nuns moved to the St. John's Monastery in Schleswig, while the monks founded a new Cistercian monastery in Glücksburg. In the vicinity of the monastery was an older motte-and-bailey castle, parts of which have been preserved to this day. In the course of the Reformation, the Cistercian monastery was secularized in 1538 and came into the possession of the Danish King Christian III in 1544.
The history of the castle itself begins in 1582. At that time, the Danish King Frederick II encumbered his brother John, Duke of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg, with the lands of the former monastery. And John, who already had considerable possessions, also acquired additional areas. As a typical duke of his time, he expressed his wealth with various buildings and founded, among other things, the castles in Reinfeld and Ahrensbök, which have since been demolished. He modernized Sønderborg Castle and in 1582 began erecting Glücksburg Castle, which was built to serve as a comfortable country residence for himself and his family.
After John's death in 1622, the duchy of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg was divided amongst his heirs. John's son Philipp received the castle and the lands of Glücksburg and thus founded the older line of the House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg. The castle remained the seat of the Dukes of Glücksburg for over 150 years, but the small titular duchy itself was relatively insignificant. Apart from the fact that the members of the house repeatedly married into other noble families, they played no role in the history of the country.
During this time, Glücksburg Castle was more of a continuously inhabited noble family seat and less of a courtly residence. In the middle of the 17th century, the palace and its outbuildings housed a court of an average of 80 people. With the death of the childless Friedrich Heinrich Wilhelm in 1779, the older branch of the family went extinct and the Glücksburg fief went back to the Danish royal family. Until 1824 the wife of the last Duke, Anna Carolina, used the castle as a widow's residence.
in 1825, the Danish King Frederik VI handed over the fief and thus the castle and title to his brother-in-law Friedrich Wilhelm, who assisted the Danish king during the Congress of Vienna and was accordingly rewarded with the ducal title. Raised in Denmark and Prussia, the new duke was a direct descendant of the palace's builder, John III. Together with his wife, Louise Caroline, a daughter of the ducal governor Prince Charles of Hessen-Kassel, he founded the younger line of the House of Glücksburg. Among their ten children was the later Danish King Christian IX. – the progenitor of today's Glücksburg line on the Danish throne.
The Danish royal family often used their relatives' castle as a summer residence. From 1854, King Frederik VII occasionally resided at Glücksburg, until he died childless here in 1863. Under his successor Christian IX, the castle gained a reputation as the cradle of Europe. From Christian's marriage to Princess Louise of Hesse-Kassel, three daughters were married into the imperial and royal houses of Hanover, Russia and the United Kingdom: The youngest daughter Thyra with Ernst August, Crown Prince of Hanover, the middle daughter Dagmar with Tsar Alexander III and the oldest daughter Alexandra with Edward VII, King of the United Kingdom. The second son became King George I of Greece and the grandson Carl became King of Norway. Since then, the House of Glücksburg is related to almost all major European dynasties.
Karl, Duke of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg, a brother of King Christian IX, used the palace again as a permanent residence from 1871. From that year on, the castle has remained in the possession of the Glücksburg family and was inhabited by the family and relatives at almost all times. One of the most famous regular guests was Auguste Viktoria, the last German Empress, who came from the closely related house of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Augustenburg. Glücksburg Castle remained the main residence of the ducal family until the 20th century. Only gradually did the family move to the mansions of the surrounding estates, such as Louisenlund or Grünholz.
The structures of Glücksburg Castle made it through the world wars without suffering any substantial damages. Only the castle's bells were seized and melted down during World War I. Towards the end of World War II, under the Doenitz administration, Germany moved the seat of government to Mürwik in the city of Flensburg. During this period, Albert Speer, Minister of Armaments and War Production in Nazi Germany, resided inside the castle. Here he was arrested by the allied forces in May 1945, and brought to Flensburg. In the same month, British troops looted the castle, and took numerous valuables, many of which were later returned. Until the summer of 1945, the castle was used as a prison for 200 former members of the Wehrmacht. Today, Glücksburg Castle houses a museum and is open to visitors.

In 2001 the city was renamed as Shangri-La "after the fictional land of Shangri-La in the 1933 James Hilton novel Lost Horizon, in an effort to promote tourism in the area." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shangri-La_City
This new name is of course complete nonsense, because there's absolutely no evident connection between this excellent novel and this beautiful place with one insignificant exception: the city is located at an elevation of 3,160 m (10,370 ft) in the Himalayan foothills and the setting of the novel is somewhere in the Himalaya.
Here you see a street in the modern part of the city.
The CY-3500 shipping freighter often nicknamed the "Abjurer" due to the fact that once you start working in the shipping business for Cy-Tech industries, your whole identity is insignificant, and by working for Cy-Tech, your past experiences don't matter, and most pilots simply denounce their past and speak of it no more.
If you can pilot a spaceship and unload its cargo, that's all you need.
The CY-3500 is the economic beast of the corporations, and is an essential counterpart to galactic economy.
Its cargo is kept safe inside the ship, and its thick armor protects it from all but the most fearsome pirates and vagabonds.
While it doesn't have a large amount of shipping space, it is the preferred option for rich individuals who can afford luxuries such as protected cargo.

The biggest thank you has to go to Simon Liu due to the fact that he guided the beginning of this creation, and basically made sure that this wasn't a crappy build. :)
And thank you to all of the rest of you who commented! It helped SO much.
I hope that you guys like this one. :)
There is nothing insignificant in the world. It all depends on the point of view.

The fall colors of Appalachia reach further than the canopy, indeed, one may be shocked by the fall colors just under foot. Lovely flowers springing up as fall drags on, adding contrast to the falling leaves of Autumn. In my journey ever onward as a photographer I often find myself pursuing such sights, small and insignificant as they may seem, brought to life for all to appreciate, working to display the incredible grandeur of even the smallest and most unnoticed of things. These Aromatic Aster grow bountifully along my creek, providing more than just a glance, but almost as importantly, a source of sustenance for bees, and butterflies.

Look Where I’m Standing Now
I’ve been thinking about printing this image so did a little fine tuning on it. Same image I posted in June but a little brighter and better clarity.
(10) 24mm vertical frames of landscape and (10) 24mm vertical frames of Milky Way (approx. five hours after sunset). Landscape and Milky Way panos were processed separately then merged together and cropped to 3:1 format.
I don’t get to do as much astrophotography as I’d like and it seems when I do I run into obstacles making the results less then desirable, light pollution and smoke have been the biggest culprits of late. This location and shoot was one of those exceptions where everything was exactly what I was hoping for, mimnual light pollution, perhaps a little smoke but not sure, comfortable temps and the Milky Way was exactly where PhotoPills told me it would be.
Every time I find a location like this as I stare into the into the universe I don’t feel small or insignificant rather I am overwhelmed by everything I see but still know that I am part of something greater than me. Part of the greater good, part of the mystery, part of the overall plan, part of the creative intelligent design and part of more than anything I can imagine but someday I will. “The Heavens Declare the Glory of God”.

I spent about twenty minutes watching ants scurry about between paving slabs today. That is all we are, really. We are ants. Tiny, insignificant beings scuttling around with no real sense of direction.
We were predicted rain today. Instead we had clear skies and enough warmth to lay on the grass over lunch.
Did you know that ants do not have lungs? Their gas exchange happens through pores all over their body.
I spent the night under the Pinnacles sky, watching the stars carve their paths across the darkness while rotating around the south celestial pole (SCP). The silence of the desert and the vast expanse above create a surreal atmosphere, making you feel both insignificant and deeply connected to the universe. Capturing these star trails is always a humbling reminder of how small we are, yet how beautiful and intricate the world can be when we take the time to truly look up. Every streak of light is a moment in time, a glimpse into the endless motion of our world.

In many photos, at first glance Bella looks quite similar to Daisy. But Bella’s nose has brown fur, compared with Daisy’s white fur. Even more important is the tiny mark on her nose, only noticed when fairly close to her. It’s a constant reminder to me of Bella’s bravery & that I am very lucky to have her. She nearly died when hit by a car & had dreadful injuries - a charity rescued her, their amazing vets saved her life & after a few months she was ready to be rehomed. I was the lucky person who was allowed to adopt her. Her tiny scar is the most obvious sign of all that happened - insignificant compared with the broken bones & internal injuries, but very important to me.
Happy Caturday.
To all my Flickr friends, I would herewith like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a fantastic 2025.
I choose this image as I think it is not only my best image of 2024, I feel that the Aurora colours provide awe and Xmas cheer, the big star in the middle (which is actually the moon) sits on top of the world's virtual Xmas tree, and I feel that the milky way makes us humans so insignificant in the universe.
Remember, Xmas is not about the presents. Spending time with family and friends is what matters!
"Humans and reality are boring. But when you find greatness in them and become interested, poetry and art are born."
(Junzaburo Nishiwaki)
The reality of human existence itself is insignificant. The poetic motivation lies in recognizing this fundamental, profound insignificance.
Looking up at the night sky at the billions of specks of light, is it possible that there is other life out there? Once you realize that our sun is a star just like most of those little dots passing by... all our problems and solutions just seem insignificant. We're either really special, or not special at all. Regardless, we're all humans and at the moment all we've got is this little blue piece of dust. We should probably do our best to take care of it.
When you feel you have no control over your life.
Tumbling is incredibly visceral. It doesn't just imply a lack of direction; it implies gravity is doing all the work while you are taking the hits—a state of disorientation, exhaustion, and vulnerability.
When you combine that chaotic motion with a feeling of insignificance, it can feel like you are disappearing into the background noise of the universe. It is a heavy, lonely place to be.
The "One Thing" Rule: When everything is chaotic, pick one thing that is exactly the same every day. It could be making coffee at 8:00 AM. It could be reading two pages of a book before bed. This creates a single fixed point in a spinning world.

A mass of Common Milkwort at Durleston Country Park in Dorset.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Polygala vulgaris, known as the common milkwort, is a herbaceous perennial plant of the genus Polygala in the family Polygalaceae.
The biological form of Polygala vulgaris is hemicryptophyte scapose, as its overwintering buds are situated just below the soil surface and the floral axis is more or less erect with a few leaves.
Polygala vulgaris reaches on average 7–35 centimetres (2.8–13.8 in) in height. The stems have many branches and are woody at the base. It has alternating pointed leaves, almost glabrous, 2 to 4 mm wide and 10 to 20 mm long. Basal leaves are spatulate, with rounded apex, while the upper leaves are lanceolate.
The flowers are gathered in long terminal inflorescences. The colour of the corolla varies between blue and violet, it can rarely occur in purple forms. The flower's outer three sepals are normally small, green and insignificant, whilst the inner two sepals are bigger. The inner sepals are usually shorter than the petals. The stalks of the eight stamens are joined together to form a tube, and united with this tube, one on either side, are two tiny petals. On the lower side of the flower lies the third petal; it too, is joined to the stamen tube, but it is larger, and fringed. The flowering period extends from May through July.
Common milkwort is quite similar to the heath milkwort (Polygala serpyllifolia), but in this species the inner sepals are usually longer than the petals. The heath milkwort can be all the same colours except for white. These four possible colours account for the milkworts' Irish folk-name of 'four sisters'.
I wandered up through the forest at Mingarry Park. Old Mary of the Salen Hotel had told me there was a derelict village somewhere up there. It was hard going as I broke out of the trees on to the rock strewn hillside. I watched carefully for adders, fearful for little Effie trying to get over the dried tufts of grass and bracken. I worked my way up to the top where I sat in the sun with a 360 view. Loch Shiel to my front was flat as glass reflecting the surrounding mountains and forest. And way off behind me a deer stood on a peak looking across at me. It was perfectly peaceful up there. Finding my way back to the forest and through it was another battle so I was ready to stop for a break and a chat when I spotted two old folks planting potatoes in their plot by the roadside at Mingarry. I always get two questions asked at such a meeting. "Are you on holiday?" and 'Where are you staying?" I confess I puff my chest out a bit when I say I live there and explain where my house is."Oh the big house" all the locals call it. I have Highlander blood in me so I do feel very at home with people I regard as my type. Acharacle may be a tiny insignificant place but it is full of talented people. so, potato planting 84 year old husband turned out to be a legend. He proudly mentioned he had received an MBE from the Queen. I was surprised but knew it must be for something significant. It turned out he got his MBE for playing the accordion. The man I was talking to was known as the King of Ceilidh. And had released 50 albums in his time. Look him up. Our postman Ian is also a learned man. He covers the village of Strontan too. But do you remember an element on your Chemistry Periodic chart called Strontium? That's where Strontium was discovered and it was used in the manufacture of every old style CRT TV. I tell you these hills are full of talent.

This was Loch Droma on my way up to Assynt
.... as in many of our native grasses, the inflorescence of this grass (Molinia caerulea) looks insignificant until you look at it through a hand lens or a macro lens and then you can see the colour and form of the beautiful, tiny reproductive parts ...
The sparkles in the newly fallen snow and the shadow and light cast by the early morning sun were irresistible. It snowed a little on Saturday morning and then a little more overnight so that this was what greeted me Sunday morning. The days are getting warmer so what's pictured has melted though a good portion of my backyard is still covered in icy snow. I did see a couple of snowdrop and daffodil shoots about an inch high yesterday so maybe, just maybe spring has finally tiptoed into my neighborhood. Taken in Trumbull, Connecticut.
Press 'L' to see all the pretty and colorful sparkles which were that way in the RAW version. Just bumped the contrast and brightness up a tiny bit. There's something about those colorful bits of light that pleases my soul and though it's insignificant in the grand scheme of things that matter, I'm so pleased that the camera captured what I delighted in that morning.

Mono Lake Tufa formations...I recently saw this on an internet bucket list of must sees....from a distance and driving up to it, it seems fairly insignificant, but as many things are, it has to be experienced close up and personal to understand the unique draw it has.
Considering the huge number of residents, it was a pretty quiet place.
When looking up the building prior to travelling, I really felt sorry for the locals. It turns out that the Monster Building had become something iconic due to Instagram with thousands of people coming to the area, climbing everywhere and just generally being obnoxious. I’m really hoping that Michael and I went relatively unseen during our time there.
I bet the view from the top of that tower makes these blocks feel really insignificant.

I know, I know. Hong Kong, again! I’m not wealthy- I just keep spending all my money on going there. I don’t think they say ‘Fourth Times the Charm’ but this trip was just that - a success.

The sky above Point of Ayre lighthouse glows with the rare and unmistakeable glow of Night Shining Clouds late at night on Summer Solstice. I wanted to capture the vastness of the scene above and emphasize just how insignificant the lighthouse really is compared to the lightshow above. The driveway to the lighthouse draws the eye into the image and the electric clouds above do the rest. There are a few weeks left of Noctilucent cloud season this year, keep your eyes peeled ✨

Really liked this mural. It is located almost at the entrance to the city entering from the port or rather, exiting from the trapezoidal pier; a place of enchantment for many Palermitans and that I find absolutely insignificant (except for the open spaces) if compared to the wonders that we have in the city. The Mural, created by the very talented Igor Scalisi Palminteri, represents the surprise, or rather, the preparation of someone for the countless surprises that Palermo, for better or for worse, will make those who visit it discover.
110km long, Paimionjoki is the 4th largest river in southwestern Finland. There are three antiquated, but operational hydropower plants. Their power output is around 1 MW, so practically insignificant by modern standards.

Such a small insignificant flower and yet so beautiful when you take the time to look.
When surrounded by Alaska's wilderness - I feel pretty insignificant. In this image I am attempting to photograph a portion of "Bridal Veil Falls" in Keystone Canyon, along the Richardson Highway. Now I know what an ant feels like.
This high-volume cataract plunges from the 300-foot cliffs in Keystone Canyon near Valdez in a series of classic-looking cascades, vividly suggesting a bride’s adornment. Only a few hundred yards north of Horsetail Falls, Bridal Veil is one of many snow-fed waterfalls inside the three-mile-long canyon. With your back to the highway, and the river at your foot—and the whoosh of falling water filling your ears—you might feel as though you’re down inside a deep gorge. In winter, these falls freeze into immense ropey curtains that draw ice climbers from all over the world.

The Tailed Jay butterfly (Graphium agamemnon) is a striking species found in South and Southeast Asia. Its vibrant colors and elongated tail-like extensions make it easily recognizable. The wings are primarily black with light green bands and spots, while the tails are thin and elongated. These butterflies are known for their graceful flight and are often found in forested areas, gardens, and parks.
They typically feed on nectar from flowers and play a role in pollination. The Tailed Jay undergoes a complete metamorphosis, transitioning from egg to larva (caterpillar) to pupa (chrysalis) before emerging as a beautiful adult butterfly.
in the comments section I am getting some really awesome comments to lift me up
I would say we are nothing in terms of nature beauty and their variation .my role is really insignificant in portraying the beautiful creatures of nature!💚
Krka National Park - Šibenik-Knin - Croatia
Krka National Park (Croatian: Nacionalni park Krka) is one of the Croatian national parks, named after the river Krka that it encloses. It is located along the middle-lower course of the Krka River in central Dalmatia, in Šibenik-Knin county, downstream Miljevci area, and just a few kilometers northeast of the city of Šibenik. It was formed to protect the Krka River and is intended primarily for scientific, cultural, educational, recreational, and tourism activities. It is the seventh national park in Croatia and was proclaimed a national park in 1985.
The Park is a spacious, largely unchanged region of exceptional and multifaceted natural value, and includes one or more preserved or insignificantly altered ecosystems. The Krka Waterfalls has the second highest concentration of lavender per km squared in Europe, hence the high frequency of wasps and bees in the area.
“To hear never-heard sounds,
To see never-seen colors and shapes,
To try to understand the imperceptible
Power pervading the world;
To fly and find pure ethereal substances
That are not of matter
But of that invisible soul pervading reality.
To hear another soul and to whisper to another soul;
To be a lantern in the darkness
Or an umbrella in a stormy day;
To feel much more than know.
To be the eyes of an eagle, slope of a mountain;
To be a wave understanding the influence of the moon;
To be a tree and read the memory of the leaves;
To be an insignificant pedestrian on the streets
Of crazy cities watching, watching, and watching.
To be a smile on the face of a woman
And shine in her memory
As a moment saved without planning.”

Their inner coldness surrounded me and sent cold shivers up and down my spine.
I felt numb, insecure, insignificant, I didn't belong.
But I do belong. And I'm still here.
L'église de style ottonien
Commencée à l'époque ottonienne vers 992, l'église a été consacrée en 1046.
L'église présente un haut chevet plat prolongé par une abside semi-circulaire qui, bien que de proportions non négligeables, semble petite en comparaison.
Le chevet plat, percé de quelques trous de boulin, présente trois petites fenêtres cintrées à sa base. Plus haut, il est percé d'un triplet composé de trois hautes fenêtres cintrées.
Le pignon du chevet plat laisse apparaître des poutres de bois en forme de ferme de charpente.
L'abside semi-circulaire, couverte d'un toit d'ardoises conique, présente une fenêtre basse, alignée sur celles du chevet plat, et une minuscule baie cintrée haut placée, presque sous la corniche.
Ottonian-style church
Begun in Ottonian times around 992, the church was consecrated in 1046.
The church has a high, flat apse extended by a semicircular apse which, although of not insignificant proportions, appears small in comparison.
The flat bedside, pierced with a few bowling holes, has three small arched windows at its base. Higher up, it is pierced with a triplet made up of three high arched windows.
The gable of the flat bedside reveals wooden beams in the form of a truss.
The semicircular apse, covered with a conical slate roof, has a low window, aligned with those of the flat apse, and a tiny arched bay high placed, almost under the cornice.
