Stations of the Cross

When you first enter the public area on the grounds of the Hermitage, you pass statues of the Stations of the Cross on pedestals in a wonderful glade of Live Oak trees. It is a lovely area, suited to contemplation. There is something about the angled trunks of the trees that give the scene an almost unearthly look. I thought this photograph was more effective if seen in black and white instead of color. Please click on this to see more detail in a larger image. As a note, I may be "off the grid" for a day or two, and then will continue to post new photographs from my visit when I return.
