Not at all sure what the signage is truly saying but the image is beautiful.

  Thank you for your kind comments. I'll try to explain what went into this image. Please forgive me if I say anything you already are familiar with.

This is a comment on an old Hallmark Cards motto, "When you care enough to send the very best." The image is composed of a few combined photographs with added lettering and was created for a final project in a digital imaging course. The theme I chose was my interpretation of a few American holidays and their meanings, including Easter. In Christianity the cross symbolizes the death of Christ for humanity, in order to restore people through faith in him to their creator and father God. In other words, God cared enough to send his very best, his only son. According to the gospels, Jesus lived 33 years before he was crucified, then he was resurrected by his father. According to the gospel, Jesus lives in believers through faith.

Again, thank you so much for your comments!

  Thank you, Melissa! (Another version of this is more of a social commentary, with Hallmark - representing commercialism, especially of Easter and Christmas - being crucified.)
