Cemetery Statue
Another couple of shots from the cemetery.
Statue on top of a grave. Not sure if it has a technical term - I guess it's an angel.

LOVE those! Especially the first one. Those clouds work prefectly with the texture of the statue - she looks like she is on her way to heaven!

. I think praying hands might have something to do with asking for eternal life.Quote:
