Description
Built in 1937, Villa Maria By-The-Sea, just off the beach at the southern end of Stone Harbor, NJ, is a retreat and vacation home for nuns who take summer breaks from their ministries as teachers, administrators and counselors throughout the United States. About 100 sisters stay in 10-day cycles from June through August. They enjoy two days of vacation, six days of retreat (quiet times for prayer and reflection), and then another two vacation days.
(I took three separate photos with a fisheye lens and stitched them together with imaging software; eliminated telephone poles, wires and stop signs; and replaced a dull, gray sky and neglected lawn to create this panorama image.)
