Here’s the complete picture from which I got the banner at the top of this site. It’s from the tonsuring of Daniel, a monk at Holy Trinity Monastery in Jordanville, NY. He sent this and some other photos of the event to me – those can be seen here.

I wish our boys’ tonsuring pics were the default in your sidebar instead of the Victoria pics – they sort of clash with the male ambiance in here.
It’s not technically feasible. There are many things which cannot be done with computers.
Well that was a techno-male answer. At least I have the flowers to look at.
which are you ?
Hi Diakrisis,
If you’re asking whether I’m one of the people in the picture, I’m regrettably not among them. My family and I were privileged to visit Jordanville and we were befriended by the monk Daniel, who is the one being tonsured above.
My ascetic labors are only at home, and I’m really bad at it.
I really like your blog, by the way.
