Description
Hello all!!
Taken at a local church Christmas play from the first row of the audiance.
They asked me to shoot the play and I was pleased with this one of Mary prayerfully pondering.
I was esp drawn to her beautiful hands in this portrait...
Taken from my one of my favorite Christmas songs ( had the song up in my gallery last year too , but i love it so...)
___Mary, did you know__
That your baby boy will give sight to a blind man?
Did you know
That your baby boy will calm a storm with his hand?
Did you know
That your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
And when you kiss your little boy
You've kissed the face of God

Beautiful work Kim. This is a wonderful image. John
What a beautiful capture. This is very contemplative in appearance, demonstrating the appearance of Mary's union with God. With all she would have to endure, she had to be "Full of Grace". Thank you for this awesome image Kimarie.
Excellent capture of the moment, especially in low light. I too am trying to learn with my Canon xt. Still struggling with low light shots. You'll have to give me some help ....

At first I thought this was a classic painting. Your photograph beats them. You're the Vermeer or Rembrandt of this age!
