Great shots, the last one is intrigueing... Those praying hands, do they beg for mercy, in praise, in daily ritual, I don't know. It leaves many questions open, and I like it. Also because the sky is majestic and light.....

wow, those photos really are striking.

The second one has a great mood to it for me.
While the last shot is really striking!

thank you so much for the kind words, i'm truly glad you all like them

i really lucked out on the praying hands one. i was driving to the grocery store and saw the sunset. i was looking for a good vantage point to capture the sunset, as well as something interesting to include in the foreground, and happened across a cemetery...little did i know i'd find a 10' tall statue of a pair of hands praying...
