In 1925, Our Lady said to Sr Lucia of Fatima: "My daughter, look at My Heart surrounded with thorns with which ungrateful men pierce me at every moment by their blasphemies and ingratitude. You, at least, try to console me, and say that I promise to assist at the hour of death, with the graces necessary for salvation, all those who, on the first Saturday of five consecutive months go to confession and receive Holy Communion, recite five decades of the Rosary and keep me company for a quarter of an hour while meditating on the mysteries of the Rosary, with the intention of making reparation to me."
This painting called 'The Message of Fatima' is at the High Altar in the Rosary Basilica at Fatima.

P.S. I'd still appreciate any comments or suggestions. But since I've been very busy, I'm not really sure if can reciprocate the gesture. I'll try my best to visit your streams during my free time though. Anyways, thanks for visiting! Ü
Here's a shot of a nun at the Phaung Daw Oo temple, Inle Lake, Burma. There were three nuns in a row chanting which was echoing around the temple, it was very soothing.
The five Buddha images at the temple have been so heavenly covered with gold leaf (only by men!) they look like like mushrooms.
Shot at 200mm @ f2.8, ISO 1600 for 1/125sec.

The Kambattadi Mandapam of the Meenakshi Temple you will find easily on this map and if you go there between 16 and 18 o'clock in January till begin March you will see this beams of lights enlightening the hall, here the Hanuman statue, a popular place for all Hindu to make a small prayer and a popular place for tourists to take photos. Nowadays videos are not allowed, still got some of '94, and for a photo-camera you will have to pay a ticket of 30 Rps.
By the way, in Rameswaram you can find the footprint of Hanuman, the monkey god, when he jumped from there to Sri Lanka to save Sita from the demon-king Ravan to bring her back to Lord Rama.

Senhor da Pedra is a small church built on top of the rocky seaside. In stormy days, sometimes this wonderful church is completely surrounded by the sea.
Its a place of devotion and wonder!
A mother's devotion knows no boundaries. Despite the hardships the poorer Tibetans face, the family unit is still very strong and closely knit.

Chhat Festival 2009. Shot @ Varanasi.
One from the archives. I found this devotee at the festivals coming down a flight of stairs keeping herself prostrate on the ground.
There is something about this picture that I like. I hardly had any time to compose properly and shoot. There was a commotion around her and I had to shoot through a gap in the crowd almost instantaneously.
I know it would have been better if I had her whole body in the frame.
The character on his knees is doing a pilgrimage, he is going around the stuppa in a succession of stand-bow-lay down. Some of them are doing it from their hometown to Lhassa, for hundreds of kilometers, in the tibetan culture it is good to it at least once in your life.
Husband and wife: he drives his spouse to her hemodialysis treatment that starts at 5 am three times a week. He takes care of her appointments, medications and meals. They always relish having breakfast out after finishing her treatment .
After a long and at times painful arm injury I felt it was time to pick up Flickr again. Sitting behind a computer is becoming enjoyable again. I thank everybody that mailed me and was interested in my well being. Very good to have such nice friends here.
This is in Chinatown in London, UK. I recently had some time to spare between legs and headed into town. I was walking through Lisle Street - parallel to the touristic part of Chinatown – and saw this chef prepare dim sum dumplings at a yum cha restaurant (飲茶). Her concentration, dedication and devotion with which she prepared the Chiu-chao style dumplings struck me at heart. It was as if the windows acted as some sort of a “warp hole” between two dimensions, as both our worlds where so different yet connected for a couple of minutes.
I took several photos and she never looked up while I – a lengthy westerner – bended forward to get a good peek through the relative low and small window. Luckily I had my wide converter already on my G9, for after three shots she was finished with this lot of dim sums and headed to another part of the restaurant.
