Thumbs up to both, but the second one is unquestionably my favorite.

And a Gleðileg Jól to you, Rajan!

This group reminds us that commonality is more valuable than competition among religions.

At the funeral service for my mother, who died recently at 106 years of age, the choir had members from three different churches, Protestant and Roman Catholic, all from the town of Winchester, Massachusetts. That pleased me greatly.

The second is a lovely shot, Rajan, but in this particular case, I think the drop shadow seriously detracts from the effect.

Bob, Eric, Jeremy, Doug - thank you, all.

Eric - great observation that.

Jeremy - thank you for bringing that to my notice. I have the default setting on in the script for the drop shadow and never thought to revisit it. From now on, I’ll pay attention.

Both are nice, similar but different. The second one is my favorite!
