Faith

Ursuline Convent and Academy

I dipped my fingers into the holy water font in anticipation of entering the chapel for a moment of prayer and saw the elderly nun in her wheelchair all alone in deep contemplation. I quietly took this photo and walked away. I used no flash and this is how it came from the camera.

Beautiful lighting. I can surely see the depth from this image, even through the deepest thought.

Lovely soft glow ... I love that you took this photo quietly! :)

I love this shot as it again tells a great story and one that I can easily relate to. The joy of prayer and meditation even when we only observe it in another.

beautiful, Coleen.... a picture of absolute contemplation.

I missed the nun the first time around, because the focus is the lighting (which is beautiful, btw) at the rear of the chapel. It's a lovely photo!
