You're driving along a backroad in Port Jefferson. You come around a corner and--wow! there in front of you is this huge Byzantine style church. Have we been transported to Greece? No, we're still in Port Jefferson. This impressive church was completed only a few years ago. Doesn't the buttery yellow of the hosta add a warm touch?
Greek Orthodox Church of the Assumption

It does seem little out of place there - just like a fantasy copy of the Taj Mahal here that is an Indian restaurant ....
I think it's quite beautiful :)
Ηi, this picture is a beautiful memory for my. We visited Stoony Brook at 2010 summer and this orthodox church. I am a classical philologist from Greece.
Congratulations for the blog and the beautiful pictures.
