Weekly Photo Challenge: Monochromatic

“This week, share with us your monochromatic images. Be calculating and creative in choosing your subject and focal point; resist the urge to simply take a photo of something with a single color range. Go beyond the obvious choice, and have fun!” (The Daily Post)

During our travels home from Canada last month we stopped in Charleston South Carolina for lunch.

It was humbling to have the opportunity to visit the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church where 9 church members were murdered on June 17, 2015 by a racist gunman.

And an overwhelming sense of kindness.

The family members of the victims and the members of this church set such a fine example of what true humanity is….when they forgave the individual that perpetrated this crime.

Love must always win!
