Wow…when I read the caption and realized fully what this photo was. Just wow. Beyond words. You have captured the epitome of solace. Sorrow. Comfort in time of distress. The memories that flood, remembering.
This picture touches something deeply.
Thank you.

Such depth of thought here. Peace at last in what was once a sorrowful setting.
