    Lovely, Dina. "Icon" is a perfect I word.
    I've always loved the word "vespers" though — I remember having "sung vespers" at sunset, up on a big, big rock, when I was a child at camp.

    There seems to be some things, that only light can do. Thank you for this peacefulness.

    Good Vespers and I did enjoy the story of Barefoot in the parvis.

    Beautiful and love the composition. Is the icon on the right is what we call Mother of Perpetual Help?

    Kim, I'm no expert, but I think this icon of Mary and son is called the Theotokos of Vladimir.

    For a better look see my post

    Very interesting traditions and history here:
