Every morning I make notes of the photos I intend to take later in the day. However, I don't keep to the plan if something more interesting turns up. This is the "hand" photo and this is the "cardboard" photo.
The Our Daily Challenge group has chosen Hand as today's topic.

Following on from yesterday's scene-setter, this is the first of this spring's occasional photos showing what remains of the rural Texas Gulf Coast plains. The photo was taken a mere five miles from the previous post "Darkness at the edge of town".
Personal photo and note:
The peak of Apollo appreciation for me, right up there with seeing the launch of Apollo 15 when I was age 15, was twenty years ago at the Kennedy Space Center, on July 16, 1999, when I had the privilege of attending the Apollo 30th anniversary press conference with Apollo astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, Gene Cernan and Walt Cunningham. I shot nearly a whole roll of film during the event, and my question to Armstrong was whether he had plans to publish a biography, to which he smiled and replied, "Not at this time" (but he finally did, six years later...titled "First Man"). Standing next to me in the bleachers that day was Andy Chaikin, whose book Man on the Moon was made into the HBO series "From the Earth to the Moon," and just a few feet away was Miles O'Brien, CNN's space correspondent at the time. CNN was airing the press conference live, but then it and all other news of the anniversary was preempted by the death of John F. Kennedy, Jr., in a plane crash that same day.
The Garden of Gethsemane became a focal site for early Christian pilgrims. It was visited in 333 by the anonymous "Pilgrim of Bordeaux", whose Itinerarium Burdigalense is the earliest description left by a Christian traveler in the Holy Land. In his Onomasticon, Eusebius of Caesarea notes the site of Gethsemane located "at the foot of the Mount of Olives", and he adds that "the faithful were accustomed to go there to pray".
Eight ancient olive trees growing in the Latin site of the garden may be 900 years old (see § Olive trees).[10]
In 1681 Croatian knights of the Holy Order of Jerusalem, Paul, Antun and James bought the Gethsemane Garden and donated it to the Franciscan community, which owns it to this day. A three-dimensional plate on the right side next to the entrance to the garden describes the aforementioned gift to the community.[11]
Gethsemane is the name of the garden, as written in the New Testament, where Jesus prayed last before His arrest (Mark 14:32-42) From the Scriptures we read; Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to them, "Sit here while I go over there and pray." He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee along with him, and he began to be sorrowful and troubled. Then he said to them, "My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me." Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, "My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will." Matthew 26:36-39.
The Mount of Olives, located to the east of Jerusalem, separates the Holy City from the Judean Desert which from there it begins its descent to the Dead Sea. The Kidron Valley, which surrounds Jerusalem to the east, separates the Mount of Olives from the city and from the nearby Mount Zion, located to the south, from where Jesus set off on foot after the Last Supper, crossing the Valley to reach Gethsemane. The garden is located at the entrance of the property of the sanctuary of Gethsemane, occupying an area of approximately 1,200 square meters and protected by a fence that allows holy land visitors to walk around the ancient olive trees.

If I wrote a note to God; I would speak whats in my soul
I’d ask for all the hate to be swept away; For love to overflow
If I wrote a note to God; I’d pour my heart out on each page
I’d ask for war to end; For peace to mend this world
I’d say, I’d say, I’d say
Give us the strength to make it through
Help us find love cause love is over due
And it seems like so much is going wrong
On this road…… we’re on
If I wrote a note to God; I’d say please help us find our way
End all the bitterness; Put some tenderness in our hearts
And I’d say, I’d say, I’d say
Give us the strength to make it through
Help us find love cause love is over due
And it looks like we haven’t got a clue; Need some help from you
Grant us the faith to carry on
Give us hope when it seems all hope is gone
Cause it seems like so much is going wrong; On this road we’re on
No, no no no
We can’t do this on our own
So
Give us the strength to make it through
Help us find love cause love is over due
And it looks like we haven’t got a clue
Need some help from you
Grant us the faith to carry on
Give us hope when it seems all hope is gone
Cause it seems like so much is going wrong
On this road we’re on
No, no no no...We can’t do this on our own
So, So
If I wrote a note to God

This girl took notes in a shopping mall, deep in contemplation. It looks like absolute silence but it was a very overcrowded situation. I had literally a second to compose and shoot.
