The Iconostasion

On the way to Kalamos I came across a small church with a simple but dramatic iconostasion. I understand that it is the Church of Sotiras: see a similar photo on the website of Petros Kominos at www.kominos.com.

Ayios Haralambos Karavas

Ayios Haralambos Karavas from a period about the 1950's.

Scaffolding around one of the houses beneath Ayios Haralambos might help us to date the vintage of this photograph.

Ayios Haralambos Karavas

Looking up from the valley to what most Karavites regard as the key "icon of the built environment" in Karavas, the magnificent Church of Ayios Haralambos.
This picture was taken in the 1970's, when most of the "sculess" - terraces of Karavas were still intact,

A great deal of time and effort was taken by Karavites to build these "sculless". Without them, the soil would have eroded away - and nothing would have grown there - including the olive trees.
