Grand Central Station in NYC. I took it a while back on a road trip.
I love the contrast between the still flag and the implied, hurried movement of the people below. I think it somewhat captures the realism of tragedies- life refuses to stop. We raise our monuments and then scramble back to the office to meet our deadlines. A doctor has to break the news of a unsuccessful surgery to a family then catch the elevator up a few floors and announce- “It’s a girl!” The juxtaposition is hard to deal with. That’s why I take great comfort in 1 Peter 5:7- “Casting all your anxiety on Him because it matters to Him concerning you.”

Wow! Great shot. Where is this from? NYC? Were you there or was it from someone on the BfA trip?
