A Quiet Moment [Contest Finalists March 2008]
Uploaded: March 21, 2008 18:47:30
Returning to my car down the side streets of Washington DC, I came across this scene amongst the buildings. There were no people around anywhere and it was very quiet and peaceful. A very different atmosphere than the tourist scene I had been in only a few moments before. It was a very spiritual moment for me.
Peace to all here at BP this Good Friday Eve. Enjoy a quiet moment in this busy world of ours.

Thanks for this quiet moment Susan. I love the symmetry and lines in this - and the bench is very welcoming for weary souls to take a rest and reflect. I'm glad you saw this and shared!!! : ) -mm #5683548
