 Creative Notes
While exploring the back of a small shop in Bethlehem which sells wooden figurines, I came across this "Box of Jesus". The image of Jesus Christ suffering on the cross is one which is typically displayed one at a time and I found these figures to be looking quite awkward sharing a box. Viewers of this photograph often take radically different interpretations of the statement it makes.
 Technical Notes
I was working with existing light in the back of this shop and so I had the ISO cranked way up. No problem; most of the photographs I was taking were based on composition and the rough wood surfaces don't show much noise. Since the light doesn't penitrate deep into the box, it seems as though the Jesus' could go on forever. One might say the Jesus could be infinate.
