Angel's Back
This image was taken in a cemetery next to the subdivision where I lived. As I drove to work every day, the stone angel had it's back turned to the houses, the living breathing people. It faced resolutely towards the dead in the cemetery. This image represents the sacrifice that people make in their lives hoping to trade the joys of this world for some rewards promised after death. By devaluing things in this world and pinning our hopes on metaphysical speculation, many people around the world make great sacrifices every day without carefully considering the value of what they forego, without clear confirmation of the rewards for which they are so eager to trade in life's opportunities.
