This really needs to be seen large. Thanks! Edit to add that the part that really strikes me as the most powerful is the top right fireman reaching down to hold Christ's hand.

Hi Deb
You know what is going to happen if I put a bigger image at the web, don̢۪t you? I already found people selling my images at 640px, so you can imagine what they would do with a 1200px or greater pic. I̢۪m sorry. Just give me some time and I'll post a video at youtube with the making of. I'll let you know.

I would have shuffled the results of this challenge a bit, but this one would have stayed on the top - bravo

Congratulations on the win. My only 2 critiques of the photo are:
- the virgin Mary's blue shawl looks like a cape for the red cross guy, since his jumpsuit is the same shade of blue.. I didn't even see her at first, she was so well camouflaged.
- The beam of light on the floor directly underneath Jesus is distracting. At first I thought it was a painted line on the floor, but closer examination reveals it's the backlight. I would recommend dodging/burning to hide it.

This looks like a nice recreation of a classic painting.
