The silhouette of the nun really makes this photo, but I have to wonder why she is so entirely in silhouette ad all the materials around her show detail in the shadow. If it is untouched, it is a wonderful photo.

Although i have not ever posted a comment before, i felt compelled to do so concerning this picture - i was casually going through all the contests and i must say, some are quite extraordinary - however, when this exquisite photo appeared, it actually stunned me, i felt a feeling of peace and tranquility and just pure pleasure - it is glorious - thank you
