I happened to be walking around during my lunch hour when the Vatican announced they had chosen a new pope. As I passed St. Francis Basilica the bells started to ring. They rang for well over an hour as I walked back to my office. I thought it only fitting to snap this photo of the statue of St. Francis.
Today is my midterm but I won't be back until tomorrow. After class I have to drive down to Albuquerque for the remainder of the day and evening. My company has opened a new office there and I have to set up for our Grand Opening. Have a great day everyone.

Very appropriate. Nice shot.
Such a fitting picture for the day.
Perfect shot for this event. I was actually home for lunch when it happened and I found a BBC webcam that was shooting the activity at St. Peter's square. It was interesting to watch.
The perfect picture, Randy.
You have a lot going on these days.

And they didn't have a bit of white smoke in Santa Fe? :-) Wonderful shot for the day!
I would have loved to hear the bells : ) Have a good weekend!
Jim and I wondered how the Basilica Cathedral would celebrate as we watched the outcome of the election in Rome.
Timing is everything. Walking by with your camera just as the bells started gave you the perfect opportunity for this photo.
Francis is perfect for the new Pope. Good luck on your exam and be careful on the road to Albuquerque. Don't get overtired.
Great shot at a very opportune moment! Good luck on your midterm, Randy.
This means also some new photos from Albuquerque? :)

Very fitting, indeed, since he named himself after St Francis. I am very hopeful about Pope Francis.
