Description This old church was built in the second quarter of the XIII. century andd despite its vast damages during the Turkish Occupation and the following baroque reconstruction in the 1730s it still presents its late romanesque/early gothic provincial architecture. Its last restoration occurred around 1964 and some more conservation and enterior reconstruction followed in the recent years. This way this is one of the most intact and well preserved rural church (now serving as a chapel) of the "Arpads' era" (1000–1301 AD) in Hungary. The early church was consacrated in honour of St. Catherine of Alexandria. After the Turkish Occupation and the following reconstruction it was dedicated to St. Magdalene.

Impact


The chiaroscuro that you used for the camera approach is perfectly placed and I must say that it captures the essence of a church and the impact it causes, to be honest there are many pictures of churches but this one is not bad, it looks simple, elegant , it delights the view because it is usually always about giving impact of terror but this is very good because even the sky combines with the moment of photography, I like to find this type of photography I usually observe them and stay thinking about what I can find in them and I like this one.
