On Mt. Calvary [PHOTO BLOG]

by Robyn Eggs

These shots are from the Cemetery/Mausoleum in Portland, Oregon. You can see the city, sweeping out on all sides from the hilltop where Mother Mary resides. These photos are unedited. They are also in large format, so I apologize for them not loading quickly. Please share and use as you like.
I wanted you to see the real dusk in Portland. Generally overcast, this was a sunnier day in which we actually had a sunset. It was a gift from God - truly gorgeous!

Please enjoy as you follow along this little trip with me...

You can just begin to see the city lights twinkle

The flowers and the stone just look so pretty together...
