surrender...

The photo is dedicated to Gerhart Meyert
Greece
Creta island
In the very old and historic Arkadi monastery, an old woman decides that sometimes a little nap is more worthy than praying... After all God is merciful and will forgive her..

    "when in the down i sink my head,
    sleep, death's twin-brother, times my breath."
    (from edmund spenser's "the faerie queene")

    I'm not sure if in this age we'll all more sleep or pray but 'm afraid that a nap is more probable :))))
    Good shoot!

    This is a superb picture, it captures the sense of peace and quiet that the elderly Lady must have felt as her eyes drooped and she fell into a dreamless sleep for a while, watched over by her God.
