strong picture Jack --- and as far as comments go, definitely merits far more than i can give it at this time --- but i love it!

Itsumo no yo ni arigato (thanks as always). I was curious what kind of a reception this picture would get mostly because of the relationship of the title to the subject matter. I feel the need to shake something up - not out there but internally, to try to get out of the ruts I've dug for myself. This happens with some regularity. One day I wake up and say "Christ, how did I get here?" Which kind of brings us back to the above picture and the questions it raises. We'll see if anyone else is moved to comment. I hope so but the way it's been going, I don't have my hopes set too high.

Jack, I just recently had a life changing event, I called God and I received the message, "We apologize, all circuits are busy, try your call back later". I then realized that to get through this I need to do it myself.

I turn on the news and the polaticia are dicking on a flag, it's easy to do that. What is hard is trying to fix the break down of society, special interest doesn't pay for that.

If Jesus saves, well he better same himself, from the glory, glory seekers who use his name in death.

He appears to be leaving the city, possibly to spend forty days in the desert.

I'm having a hard time figuring out what's going on in the sky.  The auras and interference patterns don't seem to fit in with the narrative.

With the apocalyptic white glare of the background and the street fading into the distance, this seems like more of an exodus than a search.

Perhaps the Lord's son also moves in mysterious ways.

This is a really disturbing one. The intensity of the compositions just reinforces the idea of how lost the central human here can be.

It is easy to be besotted by both the image and the title. Based on the aforementioned and comments made by other photographers, it would be easy to be verbose in my response but I will keep it short. 

As a believer who is bombarded by 'secular views' and one's own sense of logic and common sense, this image made me wonder if he would find disciples. Would he have to do something special? 

 

All the best and keep up the brilliant work,
