This is the ramp to the Cristus statue in the Visitor's Center on Temple Square in Salt Lake City.
This is purposfully processed to show a glow and contrasts of earth and heaven. The soft focus is used to indicate the future and yet unfulfilled hopes and dreams.
This image is tough to post. The very nature of this challenge is personal and touches very close to my heart. I'm sharing it in order to let the caring see my deepest desires - at least a piece. Please be gentle with your comments.

My favorite part of the photo was the upper right, with the beautiul cream white rounded object contrasting with the blue background. The lighting was lovely and subdued. Your sentiment was also lovely in your title. I thought it could have been clearer, though, and some of the noise could have been cleaned up in the white areas of the photo.
the shadow looks more like the grim reaper than the saviour, if you don't mind me saying so. the furniture in the lower right works against the overall otherworldly flavour of this photo, but not in a nice way.
Better luck next time
