Photographer's Note
I heard a song title on the radio something like: "A Cross of Tears" and had the idea that I had someplace a photo who could go to such a title.
..here it is in a setting from a greek orthodox monastery in the forest of East Poland - Podlaskie region. BTW: From one of the visits we did under Jerzys TE'workshop in the spring of 2006.

Hello Jack
I like the assymetrical realtionship, between the 2 crosses, in both size & tonal range - one dark, one light, Tfs!

hi jack,
this place reinforces some sort of details-photography...the spirit of the place, its uniqueness, the quietness...this all rises reflections...special charm...
love this photo which perfectly conveys the spirit of the place...
best wishes, j.

Bonjour, mon ami Jack,
Une photo qui sort des sentiers battus et, s'apparentant à une sorte d'hommage et de poème aux disparus.
J'aime cette composition réalisée avec beaucoup de soin et de compassion.
Très bien fait.
Amitiés.

Hello Jack,
Excellent détails que tu as saisi ici ! Cet univers morne de croix est presque sauvé par ce crucifix blanc ! Etonnant !
