The deep blues reflecting in the moonlight give this iconic moment the magic it deserves. I like the very vertical format. like/f

Beautiful rendition of the Christmas story, Maria! It's really quite wonderful. Definitely an image that speaks a 1000 words. Congrats on your 2nd place tie in the Worth 1000 Words - Christmas Time contest!

Thank you so much, Steve. Last week they put the 2 36x36 paintings paintings up in church, with Joseph leading Mary (resting on the donkey) to the stable. Next week the lower 36x36 of the birth of Christ, instead of No Room in the Inn. I always love that change.

Laurel, I thank you so much for your kind thoughts on this difficult painting... First donkey, man and woman, first night painting and first moonlight on the sand. Your praise was so welcomed.

Spectacular, Maria! Love the Night scene, the message, the composition, the softness, the GLOW!
