I had just watched "The Passion of the Christ", and as everyone left the theatre, there was not a word said. I realized how such an impacting sacrifice for us brings about a silence that is saturated in thought.
I saw this lit up cross from the freeway and pulled off. I used a Rear-Sync flash and a long exposure to light up the nearer subject. This was able to work because of the lighting on the cross that really accentuated it.
