I was thinking going this route for the theme but I couldn't find any of Mother Mary's images :D
I love this take.
Happy Mother's Day.

I'm sure you had a lot of Madonna and Child photos to choose from for this theme.
I probably do myself but never thought of it
Happy weekend to you.

That's certainly something you wouldn't have any trouble finding in Venice. Nice pics and an excellent angle on this week's theme.
