Spirit of Prayer
Pingyao, China - September, 2007


I must confess this is a happy accident. I unintentionally moved my camera, but I like the spirit of what I got.

In this case, Tim, spirit has chosen you and expresses itself through this image.

Thank you Phil and Carol - Carol it was the camera that moved, with a slow shutter speed the highlights from the faces move across the image like smoke.

As Minor White tells us, "No matter how slow the film (or in this case, shutter speed), Spirit always stands still long enough for the photographer it has chosen."
