Photos of the Day for August 15, 2017

Ausjamirava 2017.

On Trinity Sunday afternoon we made an excursion to visit the Orthodox church in Ausjamirava, a village off the beaten track in the central Pripet area northwest of Stolin.  The village itself held our attention, pleasantly slowing our approach to the church.

The profusion of carefully-tended roadside crosses in Ausjamirava — of which these are only a sample — invites the wanderer to turn his visit into the stations of a pilgrimage.
