  1. Lots of Ukrainians in my hometown of Binghamton when I grew up. Recognize the church style.

  2. Magnificent doesn't really seem to capture the truly amazing architecture of this cathedral! And light blue is a very interesting color for it. Lovely, but interesting.

  3. There's something about the combination of blue and gold that is magical.

  4. Bea-uuuuuutiful! I do love those churches, which I usually think of as Eastern Orthodox -- but maybe they aren't. I think my husband may have seen this as he has been to Ukraine quite a number of times.
