Angel in the Field

Posted by DAVE ID (Montreal, Canada) on 3 September 2007 in Miscellaneous.

Cote Des Neiges Cemetery Series: Taken on the last day before a special law forcing the caretakers back to work during a union dispute. The whole cemetery has been left without care, not to mention that hundreds of bodies are left in freezers unburied, leaving the city in a crisis. I was also escorted outside the cemetery for taking pictures without a permit. As with everywhere else in Montreal, photography is a crime.

On an artistic level, the abandonment of the grounds leave us with visual treasures.

I thought this little angel and the roses looked very pretty all alone in the tall grass.

Lost Valley from British Columbia, Canada

Very much so I agree and I really like this!!! This is super!!!

Daroru from Amagasaki, Japan

This is very evocative. Like the statue almost lost in the dense vegetation, but still bright.
