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

    I agree. It certainly is haunting.

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

    There's a great dialogue going on between the figure and background. A really lovely shot.

    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.
