Excellent pov and capture, Cheri, f/v.
Cheri Randolph replied:
Sandi, Thanks for the compliment and the F/V. Have to smile about the pov, as it was my only option, since I was shooting by wedging my lens in through the chained cast iron gate of the tomb.

Brenda, I sincerely appreciate your thoughtful compliment, as this is one of my favorites. It was a magical thing as I was processing the image that this strength seemed to appear before me because the actual sculpture gives very little of this impression. If you are interested I will send you a copy of the unprocessed version.
Brenda Owen
Cheri, many thanks for visiting my site...I wanted to tell you how gorgeous this image is....You captured it is such a sensitive and beautiful way. I have always had a " thing" for cemetary angels and statues....( I've actually painted a few) . This image evokes a true artictic expression of submission.
