I take
pictures of headstones because they are beautiful. I take pictures of graves to remember.
To remember the person, and to remind myself of how precious life is. When I saw this angel for the very first time
she captivated me.The face of the child, the solemn look reminds me of my grief, allowing
me to never forget the ones I have lost. I have photographed the angel to the right more
than once. Each and evertime she has appeared different.

The cross is
a religious symbol giving comfort to those who are left behind after death. Its a reminder
that Jesus Christ died a spiritual death for their love ones so that they will have
eternal life. |

When I looked at this woman, this victorian figure of sorrow, I
felt like crying, it seemed I could feel the grief in her prescence. |
Since I believe in an afterlife, I
find myself wondering if I will ever get to meet the people whose headstones and markers I
photograph. What were they like? What did they do? And how did they die?
