@Art Monkey: This was one that I wasn't all that sure how I wanted it to finish.. but once I started with the sky it really came together. Very glad you liked it!! ;-)

Jen from Jessup, United States

Roberta Murray from Rocky Mountain House, Canada

Nice colors! I think I would have tried for softer edges on the lighting, but I totally dig where you're going with this. Like it.

@Roberta Murray: Thank you thank you thank you.... you have become my ballast! No pressure there at all.. ;-) Hmmm, get what you mean but I think I'm going for the contradictions more so.. good/evil, hard/soft, cover of light/ dark lurking beneath.. does that make sense?

Angry Buddha from United States

Kheoh Yee Wei from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

hmm..Amy,i think there are some post-PP artifacts left in the image,otherwise this would be a great shot !

@Kheoh Yee Wei: Hey Kheoh! Not sure what "artifacts" you're referring to.. if it's the moss on the cross I wanted that left for the impression of decay. Thanks so much for the comment and your constant visits... I value your visits very much! ;-)

Rahul from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

really like what you have done to this photo, Amy. I like the choice of the purple in the background (very Lenten feel) - nicely done!

@Scene by Sharon Photography: Hey Sharon! I so like how one image can evoke so many different feelings.. I guess that's what's it all about, eh? Thanks so very much for your comment!! ;-)
