It was a breezy Spring day on Tuesday in Philadelphia, and as we pulled into the parking lot of the beautiful St. Michael the Archangel Ukranian Catholic Church in Jenkinton, Pennsylvania (a suburb of Philly), this was the view facing the road.

The Canada goose appears to be incubating eggs--or just sun bathing on the lush grass.

Think Jeff said it best SERENE is the feel of this capture
Believe the Weeping Willows really help in that regard
along with the blooming yellow hedges in the background.

What a fantastic capture of this historical place. What a shame there isn't someone to take over this beautiful useful place...so many avenues! Excellent presentation.

Congratulations on your very deserving EFP, Michelle! 8o)
