Cross wind
In this image I took a picture of a cross that is on our farm. It sits up on a hill by the hay field and I noticed it one afternoon as particularly fantastic. I love the contrast that the sun puts on the "shadow" side of the cross. It makes it seem that there are two sides to the symbol of the cross. There is always the peace and joy portrayed by the grace of Jesus that we find at the cross, but there is also the suffering and pain that he had to endure for us that we so easily turn our heads to. In this image it was nice to be able to capture that moment for me as to how dark it really is on the side that has no light in it.

I really like this picture, it's just so serene. There's just something about the angle of the sun, and the position in the sky, with no clouds at all, and i love how the cross is the focal point in the picture, which is symbolic for how Jesus and religion is the focal point in many people's lives.
