An orthodox Jew is praying at the western wall in Jerusalem. The wall also known as the wailing wall or the “Kotel” is the most sacred and holy place for jews. This is the last remaining wall from the old temple that was destroyed over 2000 years ago. This person is using the old testament bible. The black outfit is typical to the orthodox jews.

“The cardinal virtues were derived initially from Plato’s scheme which also includes piety (hosiotes)) and adapted by Saint Ambrose, Augustine of Hippo, and Thomas Aquinas (see Summa Theologica). The term “cardinal” comes from the Latin cardo or hinge; the cardinal virtues are so called because they are hinges upon which the door of the moral life swings.” (Wikipedia Encyclopedia)

Shot this early one morning in the garden of one of the mountain temples situated a short way out of Seoul, Korea. Getting to these places early in the morning, one always finds such a peaceful environment. A great way to start the day! This is an HDR image that I also pushed through a draganizor plug-in to give it that ‘older’ look!

Ever After
by Chant3A love for heavenly beauty does not preclude / A proper love for earthly pulchritude; / Our senses are quite rightly captivated / By perfect works our Maker has created. / Some glory clings to all that heaven has made; / In you, all Heaven’s marvels are displayed. / On that fair face, such beauties have been lavished, / The eyes are dazzled and the heart is ravished; / How could I look on you, O flawless creature, / And not adore the Author of all Nature, / Feeling a love both passionate and pure, / For you, his triumph of self-portraiture? / At first, I trembled lest that love should be / A subtle snare that Hell has laid for me; / I woved to flee the sight of you, eschewing / A rapture that might prove my soul’s undoing; / But soon, fair being, I became aware / That my deep passion could be made to square / With rectitude, and with my bounden duty / I thereupon surrender to your beauty. / It is, I know, presumptuous on my part / To bring you this poor offering of my heart, / And it is not my merit, Heaven knows, / But your compassion on which my hopes repose. / You are my peace, my solace, my salvation; / On you depends my bliss or desolation; / I bide your judgement and, as you think best, / I shall be miserable or blest. - Moliere[ Jean Baptiste Poquelin ]
