I love these nuns and I love that I was able to capture them as they were directing each other. They were sight seeing and it was a horrendously hot day...I cannot imagine that they were not sweltering in their habits...but they must be used to it. I followed for a while knowing that I would love to paint the black head pieces and white robes...what fun!
When we spotted the three nuns Bruce and I were taking source photos...we saw them from a distance so I took off running to catch up and possibly get some pictures! Bruce has a torn meniscus...so he stayed behind...little did I know that he was taking pictures of me running after them. I had on a red dress and straw hat so you know I looked pretty inconspicuous as I trotted along...camera in hand...trying to get the perfect shot!
Here I am...running!
Amen! What more is there to say- love it-fun and joyful!
ReplyDeleteTell Bruce thanks for this view! Priceless!
