St. Patrick

This is St. Patrick and another picture of my City at Night series in Harrisburg. A little history... St. Patrick was born sometime around AD 387 in Britain and died on March 17, 461. At the age of 16 he was kidnapped from his home in Wales and forced into slavery in Ireland. After six years he escaped and returned home. Years later as a Christian missionary he returned to Ireland. Today he is known as the Patron Saint of Ireland. Read more here.
