Thank You Bob VonDracheck for posting to the 7 Saints & Souls Online Gallery contest. What is really fun was browsing the preview square icon thinking it a photo of a "veiled" woman to open the image fully to see the larger image was a man. I do wish FAA let us decide what part of the photo to show in the preview areas. Nevertheless this put a big smile on my face, both for sake of art as well as culture. And your rare capture of the unorthodox bag, or perhaps it be an ecumenical gesture of faith... Beautiful Capture! GJ

Thank you for your kind words GJ. I had the good fortune to be on a cruise that included some Greek Orthodox priests and this was on a stop in Malta on All Saints day. The shopping bag was a lucky break.

There's a lot being said here - and your selective color just makes it such a terrific image! Love the humor of your title, too - well done! v.
