Time and Place: Candle in the wind

This photo was taken during a peace vigil that followed a choral concert at All Saints’ Episcopal Church in downtown Atlanta. The All Saints’ choir performed a stunning suite of music entitled “The Armed Man: A Mass For Peace,” written by Welsh composer Karl Jenkins in 1999. Each of 13 movements takes us into, through and out of war, ultimately denouncing it. Photographed is Carol Miller, a fellow Atlantan and purveyor of peace, who, like many of the other attendees, stood in reflective silence and watched her candle’s flame grow stronger as the city’s light began to diminish.
