About Saintly & Serene People (Saints & Angels Among Us)

This group is about people with calm, angelic or saintly faces. There is something very peaceful about them, like they were born in a meditative state.

If you look closely, you will see that there is a blissful quality in the eyes of the people depicted in this pool. Or there is an ethereal shimmer that is transmitted even in a digital picture, which is amazing!

Images of spiritual masters or "ordinary" people are welcome alike! Of course, these latter people are not ordinary at all. They are saints or angels walking this earth!

Occasionally, I accept images depicting sublime art, including the visages of Buddha or Christ, or of angelic figures. Certain forms of art capture a blessedness that is difficult to find in real life.

Please feel free to invite images to this pool. I would just ask you to be selective in terms of your invites! Please look for a transcendent quality, something ethereal or luminous about a person. This is often seen in the eyes, which reflect the depth of their soul. It may be a good idea to browse this pool before sending out invites.
