Haunting.

What a moving statue (oh, that's kind of a oxymoron!). Your composition adds to this beautifully.

Jim said...

I agree. It certainly is haunting.

You've truly captured the face of grief here. Very beautiful.

Tussy said...

He looks hopeless, lonely ..huanting.

Beautiful. I love the close up and it wasn't until I enlarged did I realize this was a cemetery.

Have a great weekend.

I love her entire stance. Unlike the others, I do not see grief. To me, she looks like she's basking and glorifying in the sun.

You found one of the rare and very expressive statues in our cemeteries. A very good choice, perfectly framed.
