personal jesus, a photo from Siauliu, North

Photographer's Note

The Hill of Crosses, located near the town of Siauliai in Lithuania is one of the landmarks of Lithuania. No one really knows the exact number of crosses people leave on and around the hill but it is still growing and must be counted in millions. There are small wooden crosses, or huge figures and altars.

This is another shot taken there.

The title comes from a Depeche Mode song named the same.

'Your own, personal Jesus,
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who cares

Reach out and touch faith!'

Hi Kris.

For sure, a strange (so lovely) view with that Jesus and all this crosses.

Well done!
