POTD - Reaching Out


POTD - Reaching Out
©2011 Kristin Corlett

The Magnolia Cemetery in Mobile Alabama (blogged here) had a lot of beautiful cemetery stones and statues.  I think that I could have wandered around there for a week and not see everything.  This little boy statue was not depicted as an angel with wings, as so many statues are, but I'm sure the family thought of the little boy that they lost as an angel in heaven.  It's beautiful, sad, heartbreaking and lovely all wrapped up in a carved stone statue.

A very professional photo! Again, you should consider photograpgy as a career.

That is the sweetest and most poignant little statue I've ever seen!
