Recently, I received an e-mail from Carol Myers, representing the St Nicholas Centre. Firstly, I will highly recommend you visit this website, there is some great information, for example, I had no idea where the tradition of why stockings are hung on Christmas eve came from, now I do
Anyway, here is an extract of the e-mail she sent me:
St Nicholas Center, a non-profit with US tax-exempt status, exists solely to spread the word about St Nicholas and to help people understand who Santa Claus really is. We provide information about the saint, customs from around the world, and a large variety resources for churches, schools, and families to use to celebrate his feast day. There is also a section for children with on-line activities.
Carol has a simple request, if I had any photo’s of churches dedicated to St Nicholas and if she could use them on the website. Although I didn’t, I promised that when in the area I would take some for her.
Today, on the way home from a twin christening (more on that when I post process the images), I stopped to take a few quick shots.
The Greek Orthodox St Nicholas in Marrickville, Sydney, NSW.

Technically, this photo was taken at the wrong time of the day, next time I have to ensure I’m in the area first thing in the morning, however this will suffice until then.
On another note, I want to point out why I really hate power lines, apart from the fact they look ugly and people get killed on them, have a look at what they do to architecture pictures.
