The girl with the red/pink bathing suit is soaking it up. Her facial expression is excellent..

It's not what I expected for the challenge but to me it's a very powerful image.

Sick photo. Very, very cool. I would have liked to have seen something IN focus to see that you missed focus, but this is such a great photo. High marks.

I like the out of focus aspect of this image. The sweep of the blur, the sun above the horizon, and the silhouette of the person creates a dramatic photo (at least for me).

Deposition of Mary

Comment by salmiakki:
Lev, this is a wonderful shot. How lucky that you happened upon it. Right place right time for sure. Like the analogy to the Deposition of Christ. Very apt.

Comment by LevT:
Michelle, while it is not possible to tell from the photo, she is indeed coming down, that's why it's called "Deposition of Mary" (allusion to the classical theme of "Deposition of Christ" by Fra Anjelico, Raphael, Rubens, and many others)

as for the guy laying down, unfortunately I only noticed him in the photo... :) Typically these side structures are tombs of rich and/or famous people, but it looks like there the body was embalmed and preserved for all to see. Or maybe it is just a statue of him ... I don't know... As I mentioned before, in Mexico, they have an odd relationship with their dead.
