Patty Powers of Australia has been blessed with a statue of the virgin Mary that cries vegetable oil. Sometimes canola oil when it's on sale. Anyhow, she's blessed, and she wanted to share that blessing with the world, so she renamed her home the "Holy Family House of Prayer" and opened it to the public. Since then she's had a number of pr stunts, errrr miracles that have been documented on the quite kitchy weepingmadonna.org.
Lots of weeping madonnas, but they're a dime a dozen. The photo above is the real miracle. It's hard to see, but if you look closely, you'll see that the virgin mother has appeared in the lampshade! Lets zoom in and take a closer look at right. You'll notice that the image of the virgin is just slapped on top of the original photo and extends beyond the lamp itself because the photochopper was too lazy/inexperienced to clip the image down to the shape of the shade. At normal size (above) only the portion over the light lampshade is readable and the rest appears to be a hazy glow... perhaps a divine hazy glow?
They say the lord works in mysterious ways, so is it difficult to accept that photoshop is part of the mystery? The lord created photoshop through the hands of its programmers, and made the virgin appear in this image through the hands of an amateurish photochopper. Witness the mystery of faith.
