Remembering Japan

The Lotus is the symbol for rebirth. This one had washed ashore.
My family's prayers are with the people of this country.

Aprivate note: I struggled with the idea of having a wave in the image, but finally decided to show a tiny portion on the retreat. So many go to the beach to relax, but it's hard for me to relax anywhere. I'm sure a lot of us feel this way at the moment. David/

    David this is so beautiful. May gentle compassionate healing and rebirth unfold, seed by seed, petal by petal, soul by soul.

    I really like the simplicity of this shot. I think you were right to have just a bit of the wave like that.

    David, Thanks for the congrats on B&W and the nice comment on SWF. Yes, the simplicity of the picture says volumes. Such a sad situation--I know mankind will prevail and find answers to solve many of the problems. My prayers go out to the people of Japan. Mickie

    A great tribute and an interesting use of the symbolic - I love
    Japanese art, going way back. Thanks for your compliments - I have no
    special technique, by the way, just a good digital camera!
