Something from this day in 2019 when we'd docked in Genoa then taken a boat ride along the Ligurian coast to a few towns and villages along the way. The final one had been Portofino and that's it you can see on and beyond the cliff edges here. The church is Chiesa di San Giorgio and the castle is Castello Brown.

A view from the sea looking back across a few hundred metres of largely flat but deep blue and slightly choppy water to land. Sheer but craggy cliffs of no less than twenty metres in height and no more than double that on the far right of the view line the picture from left to right. The rock is warm-toned with deep shadows in some of its clefts and ridges. Shrubbery and trees line the top of the cliff edge on the left side and climb upwards on the right following the rocky contours but there is a gap just left of middle through which we can see orange and yellow-coloured buildings of some age and several storeys in height as well as a church with tower, all painted in yellow and white. Above the tower height on the cliffs to the right there is a castle poking over the tops of the dense tree coverage there, while rising up the ridge to its right more trees grow including some solitary cypress trees that give away this Mediterranean location. The sky is bright but filled with huge, high, pillow-like clouds that only show a few patches of pale blue in the gaps.

A dramatic, high-angle landscape photograph of the Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi's upper terrace, taken on an overcast day. In the foreground, a diagonal stone balustrade with a partial view of a large, striped courtyard with a long arched cloister on the right. A few tourists are visible. To the left, a stone building with "HOTEL SUBASIO" written on its side. Beyond the courtyard, the misty, sprawling Umbrian countryside unfolds with cultivated fields and distant towns. A flock of birds flies in a loose formation against the heavily clouded, grey sky, which has a patch of faint sunlight breaking through. The distant Apennine mountains are silhouetted against the horizon, shrouded in mist.

Костёл Преображения Господня


Костёл был возведён в Германовичах в 1787 году на средства Игнатия Ширина, тогдашнего владельца местечка, в традициях "виленского" барокко.


С 1948 по 1988 годы храм был закрыт и приспособлен под хозяйственные нужды, о чём свидетельствует надпись на мраморной плите внутри костёла. В интерьере частично сохранились полихромные росписи, на парапете хора – декоративная композиция из музыкальных инструментов.


Рядом с костёлом находятся могилы представителей рода Ширинов, владевших Германовичами до 1939 года.


В последние годы костёл понемногу реставрируют, но до окончания, похоже, ещё далеко. Пока только восстановили внутреннее пространство.

Витебщина, Беларусь. Агрогородок Германовичи.
