MYSTERY PHOTO: Few clues to go on for this picture

Today’s Mystery Photo (at right) is cropped heavily so that you’ll have a difficult time, since there are now few clues.  It’s not every day you see a photo like this. Now, where is it?  Send your ideas to elliott@brack.net and include your hometown. 

The most recent Mystery Photo (at left, below) came from Randy Brown of Lawrenceville. Allen Peel of San Antonio, Tex. gave us good information.  He said: Today’s mystery photo is likely to be another easy one, since it is in Georgia … no, not Georgia, USA but the country by the same name in Eastern Europe and West Asia.

The photo is of the Virgin Mary Assumption Church of Metekhi, a Georgian Orthodox Christian church located on the left bank of the river Kura in the Georgian capital city of Tbilisi, one of Europe’s oldest capitals. Most of the existing structure was built between 1278 and 1289 AD. This historic landmark has been damaged and rebuilt many times over its long history and started out as a church, castle and palace built in the 6th century by King Vakhtang I Gorgasali.”

Others recognizing it were Stew Ogilvie, Lawrenceville; George Graf, Palmyra, Va.; Jay Altman, Columbia, S.C.; Lou Camerio, Lilburn; and  Susan McBrayer, Sugar Hill.
