POW #3

For the theme of "faith" 

for the photo of the 

week, I decided to go to 

my church to see if 

something stood out to 

me.  As I was walking around the grounds of St. Joseph's, I saw the

 brightly colored statue of Mary.  Someone had put vibrantly-colored 

flowers into her vase and hands, and I thought that Her statue was very 

beautiful. I think that the composition is good, and I tried to follow the 

rule of thirds by putting Mary more towards the left.  I also like how it 

is not a straight on photo.

  This makes Her look like

 she is staring off into 

the heavens,which I 

liked.  I took it around 

4 o'clock so I used the

 natural sunlight to light 

my picture.  I took it with 

an upgraded point and 

shoot camera with no 

special settings.
