The story behind this image

I'm stood on Deck 10 of the P&O liner Arcadia, shooting frame after frame as the fantastic Montenegrin coast slips by on both sides of the ship as we sail up what amounts to a fjord on the way to our berth at the historic town of Kotor.

The architecture in this part of the world is typical Mediterranean, with whitewashed houses topped with red tile roofs. Very pretty, especially when you take the glare of the the sun off with a polarising filter.

As we sailed along, this church appeared on a promentory of land sticking out into the passage, and with its combination of red roofs and green tinged dome, was irresistable.
