Shadows Remain

A rainy overcast day with intermittent bursts of sunshine.  Much needed and much appreciated.

This is one of my favourite statues which is situated under some large trees which makes it get lost in shadows on a day such as today.  There are two women, semi-nude, stretching their hands out to each other...never meeting.  Free to interpretation...

See extra for another photo of this side of the monument.

Hope you are all having an amazing day!  By the way, the quote is from one of my favourite fun reads  : )

D

“Feeling at peace, however fragilely, made it easy to slip into the visionary end of the dark-sight. The rose shadows said that they loved the sun, but that they also loved the dark, where their roots grew through the lightless mystery of the earth. The roses said: You do not have to choose. ”
