The Cross
This is an image I shot at Seaside Beach on the Monterey Peninsula on June 12, 2008…...the land to the left is Monterey and Cannery Row…....I wish I had the story that goes with this cross, but unfortunately I do not…......I just know that I can’t visit Monterey without going to this spot and taking another photo…..some of you have seen this cross in my other images…...

Sophie Shapiro
Joyce, Shelley’s words best describe this wonderfully poignant photograph!
Man must assert his native rights, must say
We take from Monarchs’ hand the granted sway;
Oppressive law no more shall power retain,
Peace, love, and concord, once shall rule again,
And heal the anguish of a suffering world;
Then, then shall things which now confusedly hurled,
Seem Chaos, be resolved to order’s sway,
And error’s night be turned to virtue’s day
I’ve connected, so you won’t get rid of me that easily Joyce! Excellent photograph and thought!Sx
