I love the title - Pax Vobiscum - Come unto Me all ye that are weary and heavy-laden and I will give you rest. Take My Yoke upon you and learn of Me, for I am Meek and Lowly in heart, and ye shall find Rest unto your souls.

This is a beautiful capture. The lighting is phenomenal and the subject is quite appropriate for the week of Easter. The detail is remarkable down into the shadows. I simply couldn't improve on this. 10

I haven't studied Latin in the last 23 years, so it doesn't help me deciphering the title. But great shadow, border and clarity.

The way the light and shadows fall on this statue keep amazing me. The carving looks so simple yet so lifelike, the most difficult to achieve. Well captured.

Comment by blindjustice:
THis was vastly underrated and probably because most people didn't look at it for long enough. I love how the eye is repeatedly tricked into thinking that sharp focus can be attained, when it can't, and the way the photo looks grey-green on first impression but the tonal light is hidden. I especially like the way the sky is distorted and it looks like palm trees above the subjects head.

altogether a very nice shot.

I thought this photo had been disqualified because I didn't see it among the top photos. I think it is the best photo in this challenge, I rated it highest with 9. It surely doesn't always fit here to submit creative photos like that, the dpc mass seems not have liked it as much as I do at least. Congrats on a great photo!

Hm... I've seen this one before... I think it was setzler's. Good lighting, anyway. Looks sellable to me.
