I was really disappointed with Fatima in terms of the spiritual experience. I was not expecting something so commercial. And devoid of any sign of God. The tree in which Mary appeared was removed and a shrine erected in it's place. This shrine is surrounded by acres of asphalt. There are barricades everywhere and monks rushing about trying to avoid the public gathered to bask in God's presence. It was a disappointment to say the least.
This is the one good artistic shot that I got. This is a scan from a 3"x5" print. I then ran it through Adobe Photoshop to fix some of the scanner and exposure problems. I didn't take my SLR on this trip I was using my Canon point and shoot. I am hoping that my negative scanner will show up this week. I will rescan the negative and see what I can make of it.

I wasn't there, but this shot looks very spiritual. When I saw it I immediately knew it was a church even before I read what it was.
