Description
Once again Mother Nature has shown her power.
I'm still shocked following the news.
Those images touch me deeply and my thoughts go out to the victims of Katrina.
This is my tribute to them.
My prayers are with those who suffer under Katrina's wrath.
About the postwork
The b/w background stands for the darkness, fear and hopelessness those poor people are feeling right now.
The coloured part stands for hope. Those who have faith in God will find peace in their prayers, but also nature itself gives hope to all and there will always be a blue sky if one don't give up hope.
Thanks for stopping by and any comments!
Thank you for your nice comments and even votes on my yesterday's upload
The two of us
I always appreciate them very much!
Sorry for not commenting today... we haven't had electricity for some hours.
Glad nothing had happened to my PC when suddenly all broke down while working on this image.
Will be back with full power tomorrow catching up again... at least I hope so!

Ein Bild sagt so oft mehr als tausend Worte ... meine Gedanken und Hoffnungen sind bei den Menschen dort.

as terrible as it was New Orleans was a time bomb waiting to go off. with most of the city being below sea level they was on borrowed time and I think everyone living there knew it. What to me really stinks is the administration's dragging their butt to get the personnel in the city to take control and prevent further loss of lifes. sorry, I did not mean to go off on your very touching image and dedication Monika. Mexico city is another time bomb. if enough rain falls there there will be 100,000's lose their lifes because the city is sinking into the lake bed it was built on

i'm not sure what to say. this is a very touching tribute and the only one i've seen. that is very much appreciated dear Moni. (i've not been on the computer much these last few days so there may have been many i didn't see. i don't want to slight anyone if they have indeed posted tributes.) very touching as Kimmie said. thank you.

We are all horrified here with what has happened in the path of destruction of Katrina. We are even more horrified of the disasters that followed. You can be assured we are praying for the victims in our household. Thank you so much for this tribute.

Monika, truly a most beautiful tribute! I have not heard about the death toll yet. It saddens my heart that this has happened. I have seen the love that Americans have for each other in the time of need and I am so proud to say I am an American. I can only hope that they will see the light at the end of the tunnel. I know it will affect them for a very long time. Absolutely a wonderful image!

Such a terrrible thing to happen, so soon too after the Tsunami near here, Nature is so strange, it gives life it takes life and no place escapes, a wonderful tribute to a most awful event, and we see every day the pics on tv. it seems to get more bad from one day to next. Why is that, where is help? My mind does not understand, money for wars, but not for these kind of things? Shame!. V Lina

Its very sad to hear about in the news. At the moment they haven
t got anything and so many familys die on nature catastrophe what a tragedy. Ive heard it in CNN and saw so many people cry that was really hard. Very Beautiful done Moni.Gor111
Monika, als ich das steinerne Kreuz ohne Deine erschrift gelesen zu haben sah, dachte ich mir dass dies ein Tribute f all die Opfer von diesem schrecklich Sturm Katrina ist. Diese Foto spricht mehr als 1000 Worte! Ein V auf die GRE Pflanze, welche sicherlich etwas Sches darstellen soll! Ein Postwork mit einer einzigartigen Kreativit! Bravo!!!
