Washington, DCIf you really want to fly, throw off the chains and get rid of the snake...
This was NOT shot in DC but rather in Quito last July when Carl and I were traveling Ecuador. I woke up this morning and told Carl I was thinking of a lady with stars around her head.... asking if this was something I had seen here in DC.
He reminded me that she was in Quito.
She's the Virgen of El Panecillo, at a height of 134.5 feet, can be seen from most parts of Quito. She stands on top of a globe and a chained snake, symbolizing her triumph over evil.
Most Madonna's are static and don't have wings.... this Virgen appears to be dancing so my advice... if you really want to fly, throw off the chains and get rid of the snake...
