hey...!!!
you pinched my old fellow...:)
i love this place and the library...
you have got a good motif here...one man praying in obvious position and another doing so in a referred position
the banding of tones on the wall is excellent and truly rosy...
pray for jerusalem
god bless

Ken, A beautifully observed shot. The two figures form the classic 'L-shaped' composition and the black of their suits contrasts wonderfully with the glow on the wall. I tried a little private workshop at home and, clipping the shadows harder in Levels helps the blacks a treat, particularly the suit of the man sitting. Very nice. Stephen

This is a very simple and effective photo, Ken. You give us two attitudes of prayer here, the one sitting and the other standing. Nice work.

Hi Ken,
Very well seen and composed image in a nice color setting.
Clear to see all the pieces of paper from people that fell out of the wall.
This is high class with strong lines in the composition.
Well done...great shot..!!!

Hi Ken,
This really is a lovely image...I know the sunset must of helped but you certainly have caught some wonderful light.It has emphasised the feeling of this holy place in a different way than that of mine.Clever how you have caught both a man standing and one sitting...well composed.Lovely work...well done.
Regards, David
