Not a comment on your photo, but on the culture and history as a hole: do you really believe Jesus was blond?

In fact, this is a comment on your photo, because this photo doesn't try to be symbolic neither metaphorical, it just wants to convey something that it holds as true, but the fact is different. And Jesus is Jesus, not jesus.

Nice choice of subject matter but the background distracts me...the hwy sign at bottom just doesnt work...maybe if you could have turned the camera a little more to the left and cropped out the hwy..it would work better.

I find it weird to see a blond Jesus , as the darker hair is already in my minds eyes by-default, but, this is not bat .. They look so peaceful - 7

the road sign in the bottom right is the only distraction in this touching picture.

The reflections on the glass is rather distracting

I normally do not buy shots like this but the colors are wonderful and I'm really feeling the scene. Good job.

I love this idea SO much... I just find the background to the right a bit distracting - or perhaps blown out. I love the glass vs the body forms.
