Remembered this at Bryn Mawr Presbyterian. Bev needed to get out after her ump-teenth operation on her foot. She drove out and we made a day of it. Shot with camera on tripod and used the remote shutter release. I was not going to shoot this at first cause the sun was out and there was a shadow over the top half. But the sun when in for a bit leaving the light even.
