Photos of the Day for January 16, 2017

Eastern Orthodox great feast of the Entry into the Temple of the Most Holy Mother of God (IV/V):  children’s communion.  Azdamichy, December 4, 2016.

The parish of the Holy Trinity in Azdamichy preserves the tradition — once shared by other confessions — that men stand on the right (the epistle side), and women on the left (the gosfel side).  The only time I move to the women’s side is to photograph children’s communion from the only practicable unobstrusive photographic angle.
